Pros

Great teammates, remote working environment

Cons

The company has only been going down since joining in 2022. There was an emphasis on transparency within company in words but nothing materialised. Very poor decision-making done by the board which had resulted in delayed and prolonged smaller layoffs following a big layoff at the end of the year with very minimal offers for voluntary separation. Very poor treatment of those being laid off with no opportunities to negotiate on anything. Felt as though some of the C suite were just not cut out for the job and the decision making of such scale, unfortunately.

Pros

Supportive and collaborative work culture with highly skilled, approachable colleagues. Communication across teams was strong, and there was very little sense of siloing. Overall, one of the best employers I’ve had the opportunity to work with. In my time there they had engaging leadership, a healthy team dynamic, and a genuine focus on doing quality work.

Cons

While I really enjoyed my role and felt recognized for my contributions, I was still included in a round of voluntary layoffs. The company was transparent about the reasons behind the workforce reduction, which I appreciated, but it was still difficult to reconcile given the positive feedback I'd received. It was a reminder that even strong performance doesn’t always guarantee job security during larger strategic shifts.
