      Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re genuinely sorry to hear that your time with us felt so challenging. We recognise that working in a fast-growing, global company can at times feel intense, and it’s clear from your feedback that we didn’t get the experience right for you. Over the past year, we’ve been actively focussed on improving sustainability of workloads, clarity of expectations across roles (not just sales), and increasing transparency around decision-making and priorities. Job security, product maturity, and brand awareness are areas we take seriously, particularly as we scale beyond EMEA. And Remote work is core to who we are, but it should never come at the cost of wellbeing or trust. Feedback like this is important, and it’s taken on board as we continue to evolve. We appreciate you sharing your perspective and wish you the very best in your next role.

      Pros

      This could have been a cool company. It's a smart product, thoguh not as innovative and unqiue as the founders think it is. Things that were advertised when I was hired like putting their people first, valuing differing opinions and new ideas, were a farce.

      Cons

      One of the Founders talks so condescendingly to his employees even publicly on slack that it’s alarming. Everyone is afraid to stand up to him so managers, and directors are all just yes men. Maybe the company wouldn’t be going down the tubes if they had listened to employees who were boots on the ground everyday and brought in more unique experiences than one entitled over-educated and pompous Frenchman. Micromanaging was EXCESSIVE at this company, if you don’t trust your employees, what are you doing?
