Top dollar pay, Leaves are plenty, HR policies are just people-oriented

Engineering sucks at Monotype, systems are fragile and the new ones are being built the same way. there are some good engineers but Monotype isn't in need of them.

Pros

Fully Remote People are very collaborative.

Cons

Silently, the company is carrying out a layoff, whether through direct cuts or by introducing a compensation plan that doubles quotas while reducing commission rates, ultimately driving many high-performing professionals to leave. The GTM leadership does not seem to have a clear direction or understanding of what they are doing, particularly when it comes to whether Monotype is positioning itself as a customer-first organization or as a font software licensing enforcement company. The new guidelines clearly appear to be a strategy to reduce headcount.
