Pros
- Competitive base salary
- When the product works, it creates real value for customers and solves meaningful problems
- Opportunities to travel and work directly with Fortune 100 brands
- Some incredibly talented people genuinely care about building something great
Cons
- Employees quickly become numbers in a culture of digital Taylorism. Even top performers are expendable. I was recognized as a Presidents Club recipient and laid off just three weeks later. In 4.5 years, I had seven different managers.
- The company markets itself as a veteran-owned, mission-driven business, but decisions are overwhelmingly driven by growth and shareholder value. The veteran identity is a marketing strategy rather a genuine internal commitment.
- OTE compensation plans are overly complex, frequently change, and make it difficult to understand or accurately predict earnings.
- The company is effectively run around one person’s ego. Senior leadership seems more focused on reinforcing it than challenging it.
