Pros

Remote working for all staff.

Cons

Engineering team is absolutely toxic if you aren't male. Open secret that the managers make unwanted and extremely inappropriate advances to female employees, and hold back progression to those that don't reciprocate. Management and HR are well aware of this and "engineer out of the company" any victims or whistle blowers, instead of actually doing anything about the problem.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on your experience at our company. We're pleased to hear that you found our remote working options beneficial, as we believe flexibility is crucial for our employees' well-being. However, we are deeply concerned and disappointed by your reported observations regarding the engineering team, some management and HR employees. We take our company culture and employee experiences very seriously, and any form of discriminatory or inappropriate behavior is absolutely unacceptable. It is essential that any instances of such behavior are reported so they can be thoroughly investigated. We have formal reporting channels available, including an anonymous reporting channel and the whistleblowing process, details of which can be found on our company internal HR system and the intranet. Our company is committed to maintaining a supportive, inclusive, and non-toxic work environment. We would therefore strongly encourage you to report what you have seen in more detail through the channels mentioned above so that they can be investigated accordingly.

Pros

Interview process, onboarding and hiring on have been a breeze. Was fortunate in that my onboarding synced up with the North American SKO, allowing me to immediately meet 80% of the employees I’ll be working with (primarily remotely). Can’t ask for a better way to start and begin engaging. Everyone is extremely professional AND easy to get along with. Teams have a wealth of knowledge and there seems to be little to no gatekeeping which for me: new to the industry and job role is highly appreciated.

Cons

Have not had a negative interaction or gripe yet. First remote role so this is a learning experience.

Pros

- Support team was terrific, professional responses, tight KPI’s, great manager. - Sellers were invested in helping the greater good, and were helpful post-sale.

Cons

- The Americas region needs stronger leadership. Unless you worked at whatever company that crew came from, they simply aren’t curious about the perspective of the teams beneath them. And the product at the moment isn’t competitive, so there’s a ton of perspective that could be so valuable for them and so motivating for employees to take part in. - Too many directives and not enough development and coaching. Spend half as much time making Docs and talking AT employees about yet another process. Ask them their understanding of it. If something goes wrong, ask them why it did and what they could do differently and have a conversation. You might learn more about the employee and their perspective that makes everything better. - Deliverability could be much more impactful for the company if they dropped this notion that they’re unreachable or unable to help customer facing roles learn how to monitor and make deliverability more successful.
