Good purpose, terrible culture - Senior Software Engineer Pathzero Employee Review

They hire great people, so that helps a little. Work remotely.

CEO with low EQ and low budget. Smart at logic and numbers, but arrogant and not a great leader. CTO with micromanagement mindset and lack of direction. Run down by the CEO and can't help their people. Toxic working environment. Lots of unhappy people. No job security as you can be fired or made redundant at any time. They will probably be cheap and go for the least costly option. They are more about greed and money rather than actually saving the planet. They don't have the right balance as per other reviews you see on here.

- The mission is good, working on climate/sustainability related software at least makes you feel like you're contributing to a worthy cause. - Most of the people I've worked with are amazing. - Remote first with several co-working spaces available in major cities.

- Too much involvement in production work from the CEO / exec team; don't hire experts and then tell them _how_ to do their jobs. Developers, designers, etc don't need to be hand-held while doing their jobs. - Not very open in terms of communicating with staff about pretty much anything that’s happening in the company. - The software side of the business gets run with a very top-down approach with very little input from the dev team. - Requirements will often change on a whim. - Refusal by the CEO to do any sort of customer interviews to improve the product as he considers himself representative of the customer.
