Complete and utter maniac of a CEO, incredibly backwards thinking on how to build or market a product, leadership has little to no experience in what they're doing and even if they did they are reduced to being puppets for the CEO (he probably likes this fact because he's such a narcissist). It doesn't stop there. HR disaster all around...let's just say they like to have fun. There are so many great companies in San Francisco who are really trying to do great things in an honest way. This is not one of them so do yourself a favor and look elsewhere.

CEO is trying to manage EVERYTHING. He "knows" how to manage the Engineering team, Finance team, Product team. I don't want to say it's a bad thing. He's the CEO and he can do whatever he wants. But the way he does it - it's very annoying. Many employees want to make great product but not everybody in management can. Plans are changing 2-3 times monthly because "WE ARE A STARTUP", which is okay too. But then the CEO comes and asks "where is the product, guys?". Management sucks, team structure sucks (it's a normal thing here when you work on 2-3 different things at a time). It's hard to argue with the CEO, it's easier to leave the company instead. Stupid technical decisions were made by the CEO and engineering leads (under the CEO's pressure) a few months ago, and it was not the first time. The engineering team is absolutely demotivated. New "engineering director" asks you to work 150% harder and promises that you will be rewarded, but most likely you will be fired instead than rewarded just because all the bonuses which HR department promised before (when I joined) have gone nowhere. I know people who left the company in less than two weeks after joining just because of the "company culture". Once somebody left a negative but really honest review on Glassdoor and the CEO asked all the people to come to the second floor to discuss it. I was 100% sure he was going to ask us: "Do you guys really think the review make sense and should we change the way how we work?"; But he just stated the review is a LIE and it's hard to hire new people because of it, and it's author should delete the review. I was shocked. And the author has deleted the review (sic!). Hey man, if you're reading this and you have balls - post your beautiful review again!
