      A troubled start-up

      Pros

      Excellent quality of life and flexibility. Until recently, an amazing group of co-workers.

      Cons

      This start-up is in trouble. Over 20 people have left or have been let go within the last several months, yet the CEO tells us we are doing fine and not to worry. They have a real management problem right now which is too bad since there are a lot of dedicated people who go above and beyond for this company. I have seen the mistreatment of women first-hand and it's embarrassing. Those of us left behind are sweating it as there is no job security at all.

      Thank you for your review. Over the past months we have worked on transparency, communication with the employees about our strategy, and we have implemented several changes in the way we managed teams. It would be great if we could talk directly about your feedback regarding our management, implemented changes, and additional pitfalls you still see. We will highly appreciate your feedback on this matter. If you ever witness any mistreatment of women at CARTO, please contact, our D&I Ambassadors or HR department and we will act immediately.

      Messy, messy startup

      Pros

      Cool technology product, with some great applications.

      Cons

      I was given wildly inconsistent directions from management, often from day to day. I would be told to do one thing, then asked why I was not doing something else. It was difficult to work in this environment of constantly shifting expectations. In addition, my manager and other men at the company were openly hostile to women. The men routinely gaslight female employees, and male employees take credit for the work of their female co-workers.

      I am sorry to hear your journey at CARTO did not go as expected. We move fast with urgency, we are dynamic and sometimes it means that we make mistakes. We are not perfect and occasionally we struggle with our fast-paced environment and the decisions that have to be taken with speed. Sorry to read you left the company with the feeling that we were hostile to women. Did you let us know you felt this way? We take our equal treatment rule seriously and we always respond to everyone who brings our attention to this matter. Thank you for your feedback!

      Pros

      great product, great benefits, smart and kind co-workers

      Cons

      company is losing valuable people and leadership doesn't seem to care. also, it seems like people are being pushed out with no fair warning. you're either in the "popular" crowd or you're on the outs.
