i cant think of any

Cons

I worked at Sleek, and it is obvious the company is going in a bad direction. The leadership does not understand the real issues, and the CEO is often rude and sometimes very disrespectful to women. There is no respect or care for employees, and this is why many people feel unhappy and are leaving the company. The technology is a big problem. Sleek is forcing everyone to stop using Xero and use SleekBooks instead, but SleekBooks is full of problems and does not work well for accountants or clients. They say they are a tech company, but it does not feel like it. Many clients are also leaving because they are angry with the bad software and the lack of clear communication. With poor management and a technology that does not meet the standards, the company is losing both clients and money. I would warn future employees and clients to stay away until there are big changes in the leadership and technology systems.
