The best and worst job I ever had

Pros

It used to be a company that really cared about its clients. The teams in Atlanta and Tucson were great to work with. Everyone worked hard and pulled their weight. I have never worked with a better group of people. I felt great about helping people with disabilities get better access to digital content.

Cons

New management came in last year and changed the entire direction of the company from a focus on making sure each site was accessible to only providing services for those getting sued (!). Then they started laying off employees all over the place - it seems mostly to get rid of the older employees so they can hire cheaper, less experienced ones. Motivation and morale are eroding and there is definitely a culture of fear going on. There's secrecy about the motivations and mission of the company. Managers are afraid to speak up because they are afraid they will get the ax if they don't tow the line and people are there one day and gone the next without any explanation. I would NOT recommend accepting a job here no matter how wonderful they make it sound. There are better ways to help people with disabilities.

Pros

AudioEye has a great product that is doing something important in the world. It's not just a great mission, it's a well made product with a talented product team. It's fantastic not just in the UI but the UX is fabulous. Their designers are very talented. If you're looking at a sales role, you get the satisfaction of selling something every company really should have. Due to the nature of the product, you will meet some wonderful people at the company. (I did same some.... there are many others I can't say the same for)

Cons

TLDR: The vision/direction of the company is unclear and always changing which is probably why they are the oldest in the industry and yet are still a fairly small company and are in my mind far behind in growth to their top competitors. 1. There are 2 types of executives at this company: micromanagers or those that lead very distantly. It's clear that there isn't real coaching happening. Leadership is pretty weak. 2. They also don't have a clear idea of what anyone's job role really is. If you take a job there, I would ask the manager with each of their constant pivots to have an updated job description and understanding what is expected of you. (That is good advice for any tech job but particularly necessary here) 3. Be aware that this company does a major round of layoffs pretty much every year and does a re-org every couple months. If you see people at the team are getting promoted often on Linkedin don't take that as a good thing. It's not a sign of progress, it's a sign that they once again moved everyone around. They don't give anyone enough time to understand what they're doing let alone get good enough at it to be successful. This is one of the most poorly organized companies I've ever seen let alone worked at. 4. They have the worst of the West Coast etiquette which is that everyone is overly polite and seemingly nice/gentle on zoom but they aren't kind. Kind leadership involves listening, direct and clear communication, setting people up for success, equity of treatment of people of different identities (meaning you could succeed if you weren't a straight white dude which is mostly not the case) Personally I think it's easier to have someone who may not always be polite but you know where you stand and you feel like you're treated the same as a straight white guy.... If you are a straight white guy, you will get the royal treatment here. You should take the job!

Leadership is running the company into the ground

Pros

Good people willing to roll their sleeves up and support other teams/colleagues

Cons

Leadership doesn't know if they are coming or going; literally and figuratively. With so much turnover in leadership, albeit voluntary or involuntary, the direction of the company has changed numerous times, rendering it completely impossible for the worker bees to keep up. Leadership is so focused on trivial matters, such as changing the logo, that they don't even realize what they are doing to the company as a whole, but more importantly, the people that got the company to where it is today.
