Pros

In general, really kind and smart people. The tool is pretty good although recent product roll outs have been poorly executed. An exciting vision for tools built with AI but tbh I would have doubts that it will be executed well, so this may fall short of whats required.

Kontras

The company used to be run with full transparency and care. That was until the CEO (and founder) unfortunately stepped down in 2022. The new CEO that was brought it from the VC company & completely changed the culture starting with two rounds of lay-offs in less than a year. We get it, lay-offs in business are inevitable, but my god, theres a way of making it more humane. Both occasions were brutal, like pigs in the slaughter house. Zero transparency and with zero warning or outline of process. It was absolutely shocking to watch from the sidelines A grand vision but with very limited resource: The vision on paper is great but the reality is that the teams don't have resource to deliver due to cost cutting measures. Ultimately the plan will unfortunately fail and more people will be axed.

Pros

On the surface, the company has potential. Powerful platform that connects with a wide range of channels. But that’s where it ends.

Kontras

Do you like constantly moving targets? How about no firm product roadmap? Or maybe poor executive leadership that pushes you to your breaking point? Then Smartly is the place for you. Breakdowns among executive leadership from sales, marketing, and product all make for the perfect storm of chaos that is impossible to navigate. You’ll join endless all-hands meetings with C-Suites screaming “GSD” paired with “push push push” as their version of a rally cry for everyone to meet aggressive quarterly targets. Culture is toxic and unenjoyable. Employee turnover is constant, whether by choice or by force. There is no time for celebration for any type of wins, whether they be on a department or company level. If you’re looking for a rewarding experience, this is not it.
