      Pros

      The company mission is awesome, people are great to work with and on the tech side there is much to take ownership of and grow.

      Cons

      Departments are siloed which leads to inefficiencies and over-complication of things that could be simple. New CEO is making positive changes however.

        Pros

        This is a company that has a great culture and a very collaborative work force, people truly care about their work and are very smart and capable. I was proud to be part of this company as we went public a couple of years ago and build a great company. Training and development was great, office is beautiful, clean and safe, great benefits , parking, hybrid work schedule. I also love the fact that we support Employee Resource groups that have been very inclusive of all our employees. I am giving an overall 3 star because the company has some great things, its just the new leadership that is a big problem and dragging the place down !!

        Cons

        New CEO ( 7 months on the job) is never in the office and always out at conferences or excursions - meeting random people that have nothing to do with our business. our stock is at an ALL-TIME LOW ! and she is doing nothing other than running around and doing selfies to put on her instagram feed. We were told there is going to be a new strategy but not sure how anything is getting done while she self promotes herself as a CEO at every conference in the country. Usually new CEOs do something first ! I have equity in this company and I hope to see things grow, but not trusting this CEO can do it. New Chief Growth Officer is also junior so is struggling to get up to speed, I have only met her once.

      I just learned that having a "growth mindset" means doing the work of 3 people. . Is it just my experience? Is that what it means loosely?

      I had a 30 min rushed interview w/ hiring manager for a senior mktg role. I wasn't fully impressed but willing to learn more. He mentioned a "take home" (remote) project. It's timed. 4 hours. 3 deliverables, all specific to the company. It would really take 4 hours, based on what I know of it so far. Some of it feels slightly outside of my scope of work, and it all feels like a way to get free work for the company which makes me feel ugh. What are your thoughts? Take it or leave it?
