Pros
The old office was conveniently located, though like the team, the space and office culture was uninspired.
Kontras
The hire-on "founders" had no domain experience, or any startup or product experience to speak of. C-level management generally dropped by the office before noon, yawned, and left by 2pm. VP's contributed nothing and mostly got in the way. Directors worked themselves into rabbit holes. The meeting culture was atrocious with full-day meetings to schedule future meetings being the norm. Effectively 100% of the product, engineering, and design was off-shored, and in-office individuals consisted mainly of over-inflated titles. All interactions with the individual contributors was done sight-unseen, effectively circumventing any opportunity to build relationships with the people we worked with. No respect or recognition was ever given to the team. Compensation at the individual contributor level were terrible, and benefits and equity are very poor (2 weeks PTO and stock option allocations in the hundreds). Ironically no retirement benefits were available. Management was over compensated and generally hired unqualified buddies to fill senior VP roles and above.
