Smartling-What could have been

Account executive

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The product is SOLID. Great engineering team and on paper, this thing should fly.

Cons

It's driven by people who don't know what they're doing. They are very smart, driven people who don't care about the people who work for them because they think the product sells itself. It doesn't. In fact, the biggest challenge is status quo or getting companies outside of the technology to make the plunge. There was a HIGH amount of turnover from the VP level (VP of Marketing and Sales had short life spans at Smartling) when I was there and it continues to be the case.

Pros

Cool office space, great product, some alright people.

Cons

Hire and fire culture. Its been the 2nd or 3rd time in the past 18 months. Unfortunate that they are wasting talent and investor money.

Pros

Smartling has built a great platform with amazing features and functionality. The core ingredients (people, opportunity, technology) should all add up to a successful business.

Cons

Management is delusional. The CEO takes no responsibility for his actions while blaming everyone else in the company for the current state of affairs. The truth is he is not equipped to lead Smartling any further than he already has. It's pure hubris that keeps him in his current role when stepping aside for someone more competent would benefit everyone (including him!).
