Pros
-they hire wonderful, brilliant people who want to work together and help each other -the company actually lives by their values -they're always trying to improve their employees' with new benefits, policies, and advancements within the product -management was great, it felt like they cared about me first rather than as another employee -flexible fridays were phenomenal - i was able to take the day off and essentially work a 4 day work week by getting things done ahead of time -we were given information as to why a change is being made and what led to this decision making. the CEO, Mathilde, is extremely transparent about the state of the company and what her vision is - i've never had so much clarity on the business side of a company than at Front -they want you to succeed -great product to sell -good time to get in -you can tell that a conscious effort has been and is continuing to be made in terms of diverse hiring and inclusivity if i wanted to stay in sales, i would have continued at Front. it's a great place to be.

Company is struggling financially in the current climate, and leadership’s response has been to cut some of the benefits that encouraged people to join in the first place. We used to have Flexible Fridays that were advertised as a day to do whatever you needed - heads-down time to work on a project, or even a mental health day off if you needed it. After a round of layoffs our CEO said Fridays should be just like any other work day, but with fewer meetings. Leadership is not great at communicating our position. Our CFO will give a presentation where she says our financials are in poor shape and then in the same breath say that any company would be glad to have our balance sheet?
