      good product good customers good players in the field

      Cons

      -micromanagement micromanagement micromanagement -everything is being recorded, everything is being monitored, everything is being watched, show proof of all your work and spend all your time recording this proof -aggressive focus on internal slack updates that take priority over work -managers encouraging team members to throw other teams into the fire/under the bus "to know what it feels like" -management has told teams they want more for less "need to figure out how to increase all your capacity" -no sense of team or culture, just results with unrealistic timelines

      Hearing this from someone in Finance, where the work is demanding and the margin for error is small, genuinely means a lot. The fact that you're experiencing the culture as values-driven and not just values-stated is exactly what we're working hard to build. The pace is real and so is the opportunity, and we're glad that combination is landing as energizing rather than exhausting. Thanks for taking the time to share this.

      Pros

      - good team members and peers in mid-senior management - flexible time off (sort of) - amazing product - great tools for building with AI

      Cons

      - burnout culture: "intensity" is a core value that plays out as burning people out, We've lost some good people over this. - when execs ask for feedback, and people are honest, they gaslight the folks giving feedback to minimize and dismiss the issues raised. - the week between Christmas and New Year's used to be company wide time off. Now it has to be approved by management. There were clearly some executives who wanted this to happen because they couldn't stand giving the whole team time off at once. See burnout comment above. - impulsive and reactive CEO. Fire drills every week that derail current projects. Downstream, we get harpooned by our direct C-level for not meeting deadlines. Other items have to be deprioritized in order to accommodate his urgent requests; there's no way around this.
