- Layoffs: They laid off a bunch of people in May 2019, then 40 more in Feb 2020. They had set up an entire office of ~15 people in Atlanta in 2019 only to fire all of them 6 months later! - When COVID hit, they waited about 30 seconds to lay off 75 more people in March 2020. They blamed it on the virus, but it seems like most of these layoffs were already in the works and they were just being opportunistic. They described the layoffs as "temporary" but as far as I know, they haven't brought many people back. Rather than cutting people loose, they keep extending the "temporary" layoff so that they can avoid paying severance. When people do leave, they won't even allow them to buy their own used laptops and instead have employees mail them back to languish in a closet. - CEO and COO meddle in day-to-day work. Things move slowly because people worry about taking action without their approval, but it's difficult to find enough time with them to get their go-ahead. They often involve themselves in things and rush to sway them in a certain way without knowing the whole situation - CEO is worse than COO in this regard. - They don't seem to know who they are as a company. They have vague values like "Kind" "Brave" "Smart" etc. They started as an agency that did complicated JS development work and built their brand doing that. But then they decided that they wanted to be more of a "strategic partner". Nobody seems to know exactly what it means to be a strategic partner or how to market themselves as such. - They use a trillion different softwares to do one task each. I constantly had tabs open for Trello, Notion, google sheets, BambooHR, Slack, G-Mail, Nexonia, etc. etc. etc. - They're a tech agency with no CTO

Rangle was once known as a great place to work - from the teams, the clients and of course, the culture. This drastically started to shift in the past 12 months. Think about this before you decide to make the decision to join here because the marketing of the company stays the same without much consideration that the current landscape is drastically different. In less than 12 months, this company went through 3 reorganizations - from removing key senior leaders (10%), to wiping out marketing leadership and most recently, laying off 40 people. Essentially making their 'diversity report' (conveniently published a month before the big reorg) out of date and inaccurate. The message company wide each time is that this will never happen again - it did. The leadership and communication (internally and externally) is disingenuous and needs a reality check. Good leaders are leaving en masse, many strong female managers have opted out even earlier, leaving a serious gap in vision and leadership. The company is trying to fix this by changing existing titles internally gloss over these changes - mainly to manage the PR of the org's current situation to clients.
