A shop that runs in an alternate reality - Anonymous employee MOSAIC Employee Review

The first con is that HR has been encouraging the “leaders” of the company to write only positive 4-5 star rated reviews. Stop doing that and be honest with yourselves. About 15% of the less than 200 person company is considered to be in “leadership” roles. It is ridiculously top heavy for a startup. They have all the trappings and bureaucracy of a large corporation - long, frequent and rambling meetings and several committees, but it still lacks the governance or professionalism of a regular corporation. Two to four hour meetings over simple business decisions are quite common but the hierarchy of the place is such that the final decision is made by one or two people in the Executive team. The place prides itself to be an “equality” fostering oasis in a big bad world. Promotions and hiring are based on fulfilling vanity metrics - aka diversity. The company assigns a referral bonus for new hires based on gender and skin color. On the face of it, seems like a good strategy, but in reality it is patronizing.
