Finance and Accounting - Accountant Scrypt Inc. Employee Review

I worked at Scrypt for 1.5 years and recently moved on to a better opportunity. The below review of Scrypt represents my personal opinion on the company. Benefits: Scrypt offers great health benefits which exceed the industry standard in Austin. They provide drinks and fresh fruit which I consider a norm for the Austin tech world. Other than that, they really do not offer anything special in regards to great benefits. Once every blue moon, they will have a company outing after work, but they have not organized anything in 2016 that I know of. There is absolutely no alcohol on premises and to my knowledge the company has never organized a happy hour. Pay and Bonus: From my experience the company offers fair pay. I will say that their bonus payout is lacking in terms of industry standards in the city. Opinion on Finance Management: As a member of the Accounting and Finance team, I suggest that potential applicants stay away from the company. The Accounting and Finance leadership have created a toxic environment that is not conducive to growth and happiness. The CFO has mismanaged the accounting department to the point that the entire accounting team present 1 year ago has left the company. The CFO fails to take responsibility for the shortcomings of the department and shoves all the blame on a single individuals in the department. Also as a judge of character, he refused to payout my earned annual bonus even though I was employed for all of 2015. For anyone looking at a financial role at Scrypt, please avoid. There are plenty of opportunities in this city.
