Pros

Has gotten funding Has connections for future possible funding Good people to work with until mid-management level, culture among employees is great despite C level management. Leave structure allows for flexibility of usage

Cons

Very bad top level management; no clear direction and goes where the money is Heavily reliant on one client; laws don't apply to them mentality, everyone else in the company adjusts to them Top level management has no feel for what's happening with their employees. Very deluded and blind to what's causing company-wide dissatisfaction even though it has been raised multiple times. Compensation & Benefits is just base salary, ESOP, and healthcare. Nothing else. Company culture basically non-existent, giving food or throwing year-ender parties doesn't cultivate proper work culture. One of the company values is to "be in the arena". Basically expecting employees to be in the warehouses to "help out" or "get things done".

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review, even the ones that are a little tougher to read certainly allow us to reflect on changes. I'd like to share several key company initiatives that relate to some of the points you have mentioned. We care for and appreciate the voice of the organisation, which is our people. We've deployed a fantastic initiative that allows employees to rate all areas of the company, including leadership anonymously and openly. It truly is anonymous as we used an external platform to guarantee this. Our most recent review process saw the company eNPS rise and it demonstrated positive results in all areas. We'll continue to do this work and listen to all employees, however they wish to share their voice. Our benefits include a Healthcare, performance based bonus, personal learning and development budget, 25 days leave [not including public holidays] a MacBook and also an employee share program. We're proud of the benefits package and it is highly rated and very competitive. Be in the Arena is far reaching value, covering all aspects of being part of the company and active with your voice and actions. It's welcomed and encouraged. Whilst it's clear that your time may not have been what you hoped for, we thank you for the feedback and wish you all the best.
