Pros
- Great People and fun to hang out with - Decent Pay - Awesome perks as Weekly Surfing and Paddling Class. - Interesting Customer Base (Brands and their business) - Great Product Vision. - Some really great folks in the Senior Management Team
Kontras
- Blame Game Approach, tendency to blame the client (customer has too high expectation) across different teams as (Support, Operations, Engineering) - Communication between Engineering and Customer Facing one sided (Market to Engineering and not back). - Engineering too absorbed in their own world - bi-directional communication, interaction and delivery is mediocore. - Engineering and Product Management chase the market rather than being ahead of the game (market). Very bug focused rather then driving the product forward towards the market needs. - Meetings and Escalations often involve tons of people, with few doing the heavy lifting and contributing towards a progress. (Almost like being at a multinational while it is a Startup in transition to a Scale Up)
