Pros

IF you are lucky, you will get to work alongside some of the most inspirational people in the industry.

Cons

They don't invest in their employees. They over promise and under deliver. They hire out of nepotism and leadership relationships. They invest more money in a poorly thought out AI product that is behind on competition, overpriced and have little to no user data. They will ask you to bring in your network, just to disappoint and inevitably burn your bridges with your connections. They will promise you promotions and raises and then backpedal when the time comes to roll them out, and if you act the slightest bit shocked or upset... don't be alarmed if you are let go with in a matter of days.

Pros

Some helpful colleagues who understands your pain, but things are above their pay grade on what they can control.

Cons

My time at Centific was nothing short of a traumatic experience, and I feel compelled to warn others. The root of the problem lies squarely with the top-level management, specifically at the VP and Chief AI level. Their behavior creates a toxic and hostile work environment, making everyone's lives miserable. Unless serious intervention happens from above these individuals, Centific is doomed. They are hemorrhaging talent, and their reputation is rightfully tanking. Management at Centific treats employees like disposable cogs in a machine, not human beings. Expect to be treated like a slave. Weekend work is not just requested, it's demanded, with thinly veiled threats if you dare to prioritize your personal life. Deadlines are laughably unrealistic, and despite the constant pressure and long hours, hard work goes completely unappreciated. It's a culture of fear. No one dares challenge these bullies because they're all cozy with top management. Seriously, I'd rather be unemployed than endure another day at Centific. Do yourself a favor and RUN, don't walk, away from this company. Your sanity is worth more than a paycheck from this hellhole. You won't be respected here. Your family time will be stolen. The place is full of cutthroat, self-serving individuals who wouldn't care if you dropped dead at your desk, as long as their own agendas are advanced. Consider this a serious warning: Avoid Centific at all costs.

Pros

It would be a cold day in …. Before I ever give this company a positive review. This has been by far the most traumatic experience! I left an amazing company for false promises! My old company did everything to keep me, but I wanted to experience over money. Worst decision I’ve ever made. HR is more worried about ruffling feathers and loosing their job than actual integrity in the workplace. In this job economy, can you blame them ? I guess not. No pros for the company! However you will meet some amazing people here, so amazing that they’ve given their all into the company. Hoping one day it will pan out. Some are stuck due to this terrible job market, no where else to run. Fortunately I ran back to my industry and never been more grateful!

Cons

Terrible Management: The management is incompetent, lacking the skills and experience necessary to lead effectively. Lack of Support: There is little to no support provided to employees. You're often left to figure things out on your own. Poor Communication: Communication from management is almost non-existent, leading to confusion and frustration. Inexperienced Workforce: This company operates like a startup (with zero budget), but it's run by people who have little to no knowledge of their job roles, which creates a chaotic work environment. No Resources: There is a severe lack of sales materials and other necessary tools, leaving employees unprepared and struggling to meet expectations. Cultural Issues (NUMBER ONE ISSUE): There's a noticeable cultural problem where the company tends to hire from their own network in India, bringing in people who do not understand the market let alone the US market or the needs of the business. This practice increases the challenges in the company. Existing relationships with customers are constantly ending due to the aggressive tactics! Lack of customer support! Lack of service! Lack of transparency and false promises! No Raises or Bonuses: Despite the hard work, there are no raises or bonuses, making it difficult to feel motivated or valued as an employee. Even after contributing your own financial resources to help you achieve your goals within the company. No you’re not compensated back. Exploitation of Resources: The company will suck all of your resources and energy. They want 100% access and control over YOUR network. They will cause you to burn bridges! I had a target on my back when I refused to allow access! I seen what happened to others within the company. The amount of bridges they were burning and relationships they ruined. Mind you I invested my own money and resources already, but that wasn’t enough. They then wanted my contacts. Absolutely not! This company is on a fast track to failure, and I foresee lawsuits on the horizon. So much so I have documented all of my experience, kept emails and messages from people who were harassing me and even customers. Information on the lies to customers, after voicing my concerns about the situations. Receipts of plagiarism ! All of it! I wish I had the money to sue this company into oblivion! But the day someone has the financial means to sue, I will be locked and loaded to assist! Anyone who applies to this company is a fool, especially after reading all of the negative reviews. Overall, this is a highly dysfunctional and toxic work environment, and I would strongly advise against joining this company.
