      So much potential...squandered

      Pros

      There's an air about this place that has a "can-do attitude". There's a ton of potential here, with the company. Work life balance for everyone (except for maybe Sysops) is excellent. For the most part you leave work at home.

      Cons

      Career Growth: Very little. They will ALWAYS hire the cheaper option. What's the expression A's hire A's? Well this company only hires C's. Direction: Seems pretty murky at the moment. Mentorship: non-existent. Morale: terrible. Turnover: high. No one is enjoying watching the CEO learn the job as he goes. There's very little faith among employees in his ability to grow/sustain the company.

      Interesting solution but too much organizational change

      Pros

      Option to work from home Unlimited PTO Not a place that will micromanage you.

      Cons

      No health insurance benefits, just a monthly contribution. New CEO changed the entire vibe of the company, which has caused employees to leave and many are unhappy with the changes. Old CEO left the company which was odd and no real explanation to staff. Lots of people leaving, people getting let go. Just doesn't seem like the happy environment it once was. There seems to be lack of direction but we keep being told the company is in a hyper growth phase.

      It was really great for a long time and now it is not

      Pros

      Lots of work life balance. Unlimited PTO and not a place that micromanages.

      Cons

      The new CEO has not made it a great work atmosphere. There have been many layoffs and others who have left the company because of being unhappy with the changes. I miss the old IdeaScale. The company is not going in a good direction.
