Pros
Nothing. This company was a disaster from day one. All smoke and mirrors
Cons
Most people working there including the CSuite-started young and have limited outside experience in this space. They hired a handful of people from big tech, however, most big tech people who were hired- left or were let go when they began questioning - or trying to implement anything that would resemble true performance - which is a strong signal of who MNTN is in this space. High employee churn and the engineering team is like 20 people. They also just laid off like 40 people under the term "reorg." The original C Suite spends most of their time trying to protect themselves from anyone who can see they are underqualified to do their jobs through fraternity-style politics and underhanded behavior. The only people who truly liked working there and stayed were the original group from the previous company. They spend most of their time protecting each other. The COO is your typical pompous millennial bro; but with zero tech street cred or any viable business skills who insists everyone agree with him that MNTN is going to be "the next Facebook." Totally insane given MNTN has been around for like 13 years under a previous name and has very few developers or engineers. Most of the staff were customer support and platform specialists and salespeople selling a product they know did not work and had zero confidence in. Constant client complaints about underperformance and over-promising. Clients also questioned the data. Because MNTN gives them no way to do a/b testing there is no way for a client to determine the accuracy of the performance or data. It appeared that they were trying to make as much money as possible off of people who did not know better. They specifically targeted small to mid-sized companies and avoided larger companies who were on to their game. Partners like Hulu and others ended their contracts. Ultimately the company is run by people who are not qualified to lead and operate in this space, Their competitors will surely put them out of business.
