Pros
- Still basically remote first
Kontras
- The CEO is incompetent and doesn't galvanize the company as the former CEO did. I feel like Kara reads of a script she's prepared every time she makes an impactful announcement to the company. Honestly, it's kind of soulless. - There's been a clear decline in company culture over the past year. The company used to value open communication and questions during its weekly hour-long AMA call. Now this has been divided into smaller calls with unclear goals. - Removed our mid-summer shutdown week, which was a great idea for employees to recharge, and replaced it with 5 recharge days, which is so utterly ridiculous since we have unlimited PTO. - Hub city model seems like a change in name only. Why would we need to do that at a remote first company? - CRO, CPO, CMO, CFO all left within the last 12 months. A CFO replacement was hired, then almost immediately decided they would not join the company (you do the math). A few weeks later, they hired an interim CFO and significant layoffs followed shortly.
