Arch Systems Reviews

The CEO is a sales guy first and always and will tell you what he thinks sounds best but not do anything. He won’t let people just do their job, always thinking he knows better because one time someone at a FAANG did something like this, so now he has to. He does not respond to feedback professionally, instead deciding to be punitive if he doesn't like what you have to say. The sales team is basically a racist fueled frat house who never know what they’re talking about and talk down to the women if they bother to talk to them at all. This is pervasive throughout the team. The sales team is also allowed to bail on major events, meetings they set, etc. after long nights of drinking. The new HR group is not approachable and doesn’t seem to do anything but ask us to write reviews and write them themselves. If HR team reviews call out diversity needing to be a priority, that seems like a red flag to me. There was a diversity person who seemed cool, but she disappeared which sucks. Leadership got called out on there being no diversity at Arch Systems so they checked a few boxes and went back to ignoring it. In general priorities move around all the time and it’s not really explained. Seems like the CEO can’t figure out what to do or who to listen to.

It's a start-up, so sometimes work can feel chaotic. It keeps things exciting though.
