Pros

Not working there is a pro.

Cons

Not only is the CEO an unhinged maniac, but the president and leadership team are also truly inept. CONSTANT Lies and promises that are never fulfilled. Covering up sexual assault, blaming employees when they mess up, never owning up to mistakes, the list could go on and on. Sure the company has raised a lot of money, the CEO is always the smartest guy in the room... the problem is no one wants to be in the same room as him. Before you accept the job just ask them how many people in senior leadership have quit or been fired since they started? That should tell you all you need to know.

We are very sorry to hear about your experience with us. There have been several management additions and changes as we continue to grow very quickly from a start up company. No allegation of sexual assault was ever made to management whatsoever. We wish you nothing but positive experiences moving forward.

The team is a fantastic group of people.

Changes in the aim of the company over the years made it a bit difficult to know what to build at times.

Did everything for my career I wanted it to, spring boarding me into more strategic positions after.

Cons

Mid management was often lazy and loved to micro manage.
