Shyft Moving Reviews

Pros

Nimble company that has come a long way in recent months with regard to direction and people.

Cons

Normal challenges of a start up.

Pros

Payroll was on time once HR was hired Generous PTO Dedicated employees at the junior level trying to do their best

Cons

CEO is completely out of touch with his own business and has half a dozen personal assistants to enable his projects. In reality their job is to filter out his worst ideas and minimize the chaos to the rest of the company. CXO is a genuine person but ineffective and has little influence. CTO is a power player with the CEO's ear and uses it to remove those with different opinions. Shyft has also gone through 3 heads of product and 4 sales VPs in past 12 months alone. The constant leadership turnover affects the day to day ability for junior and midlevel employees to get work done. The best hires quickly leave once they realize the internal chaos that was hidden during the hiring process. Because the mess comes from the top down, it is unlikely to ever change.

Pros

Glad to not be at this company any more.

Cons

-The CEO is mentally unstable and treats his employees very poorly - especially in Belgrade, Serbia -Most of his executive team has left because of his poor leadership style, frequent negative emotional outbursts and tantrums, blaming others instead taking accountability and inability to have empathy. - CEO has very low EQ - Husband and wife run the show and they argue often - very uncomfortable working environment -2 co-founders have left for the above reasons -Most of the C-level leadership team has turned over (CTO, CPO, CRO and CMO) -Toxic work environment and culture

Pros

travel to other countries and meet people

Cons

they treat employees horribly and are dishonest

Pros

I recently started and the process has been easy. Looking forward to the growth of the company and where we can take this company in the future.

Cons

There have been no cons as of yet.

Pros

Flexible hours and remote work

Cons

no dedicated HR person in US

Pros

Even though we are still developing procedures there is a great team spirit at Crater. Everyone knows Crater's goals and works together to get there. I get to be heard on processes and help develop them which is much different in a large corporation where it takes months to see small changes. Management is mostly transparent about everything so we know whats in the works.

Cons

I work a lot of hours to get done what needs to get done but i enjoy my work

Pros

I got paid... after having to email 3 different people to set up payroll myself

Cons

No organization. Culture of verbal abuse. Expectation that you will work round the clock. I worked in San Francisco, and CEO explicitly told me I wasn't worth my salary, because they have a team in Belgrade that works 24/7 for "a third of what you make." No real HR, so no one to report these abuses and improprieties. Had the privilege of listening profanity-laden rants. No boundary between executive suite (husband and wife team) personal life and company business. A lot of these "positive" reviews are fake or forced reviews from the Belgrade team.

Pros

It gives me a finer appreciation for my current job after having worked for this husband/wife circus

Cons

Zero leadership, zero vision, CEO unqualified to manage his daily emotions

Pros

You might end up in exciting unexpected places. Rare periods of optimism.

Cons

Lack of transparency. Unprofessional leadership that brags about how previous leadership was bad but still does the same - making decisions based on anything but real data, regular layoffs, toxic culture, etc. They tried to wash themselves by bringing in a new CEO, but the manipulation became even worse.
