Pros

Started off great. Innovative company. Kind a d smart leadership. Autonomous. Collaborative. Then the wheels fell off.

Cons

Five acquisitions of failing companies bloated the headcount. Mediafly also took on the salaries of each company's C-suite killing any chance of a balanced P&L sheet. In my first year the company doubled in hesdcount through these acquisitions without even coming close to doubling the revenue. I don't even know where to start on the product. It went from being one of the best in class sales enablement platforms to a Frankenstein monster. user experience was a huge differentiator and that went out the window. There's a compelling vision, but the execution has been atrocious. The culture went from a people-focused, collaborative, innovative, creative, and fun to one of the worst places I've ever worked at. They preach a Flyers first culture but the reality is the moment the wheel started falling off, they stopped caring about people at all. The org chart is a mess. I would actually just call it the re-org chart because it's constantly changing without any strategic long-term thinking. Some very smart and kind people work there, but most of them didn't make it. and we're replaced with task masters instead of leaders. The fact that Mediafly had a 4.8 rating on Glassdoor when I started, and it's now dropped the whole point to 3.8 says it all.

Pros

There are some pleasant coworkers.

Cons

I deeply regret my time at this company. One of the major issues is the retention of executives from various acquisitions, resulting in an abundance of overpaid leadership without clear contributions. The constant shift in the GTM strategy every quarter left the team feeling uncertain.The products consistently lagged behind industry rivals. One of the most disappointing aspects was the company's treatment of its employees. When nearly 30% of the workforce was laid off, the severance package provided was only two weeks. This starkly contrasted with the company's ability to fund a co-CEO position, continuous hiring, and funding trips for select employees following the RIF. I deeply regret my decision to work here, and I would caution anyone considering joining this organization to carefully weigh their options and consider the company's priorities.

Pros

-Good work/life balance. 20 days front loaded PTO -A few great people to work with -Learning experience (if you're willing to always adapt to a new direction)

Cons

I worked at Mediafly for 2 years, and the company “vision” changed every quarter. Early on, the company was communicative and transparent. Over the course of 2 years, 5+ acquisitions happened and the C-suites from these companies stayed on. None of these people were ever in alignment and the original culture went down the drain. Mediafly is supposed to be a "revenue enablement" solution, but they don't internally prioritize enablement or understand how to truly enable revenue teams. The acquired products were dropped on the sales team with no plan to train them how to sell it. The idea of how the products would work together made no sense. They promote sales excellence yet there was zero consistency in enablement leadership (5 different enablement leaders in 18 months). Its hard to trust an enablement solution that doesn’t understand enablement to its core.
