Pros

cool industry and trendy NYC location

Cons

CEO has no direction, company has no outlook for profit and the HR problem is absurd. they go on hiring sprees and then fire everyone within a month. no job security, absolutely no roadmap or plan for profitability and they're banking on an endless stream of investment money to keep paying for CEO's overspending.

Pros

Competitive salary (when payroll was met)

Cons

The company operated for years without establishing a viable business model and struggled to generate any revenue, which created persistent instability. CEO lacked clear direction, resulting in repeated restructuring, multiple rounds of layoffs, and high turnover. After the loss of its primary investor, the situation deteriorated quickly. Employees were furloughed and later terminated, and final wages and severance amounts were never paid out!! As a result, several former employees have pursued formal action to recover compensation owed. Communication during this period was inconsistent and often unclear, leaving employees without reliable information about pay, benefits, or next steps. Overall, the experience reflected weak financial oversight, reactive decision making, and a significant breakdown of trust between leadership and employees.
