Pros

The work we’re doing is important, and there are many talented, hard working people here who give their all every day.

Cons

The leadership in the People department is disappointing. It’s frustrating to watch the CPO and Head of People Ops occupy high level roles without contributing anything meaningful to the company. Despite the challenges we face and our limited runway, it’s clear that these roles are more symbolic than functional. The CPO and Head of People Ops are rarely visible or communicative with employees. In a company where every role should add value, it’s disheartening to see individuals in such critical positions have little impact. It’s difficult not to feel like they’re a drain on resources at a time when we need lean, efficient leadership.

Pros

If you’ve transitioned to a new opportunity, consider yourself lucky.

Cons

The company has struggled post-sale, and unless there are significant changes in leadership, it’s best to stay far away should they ever secure funding and attempt to scale again. Senior leadership, including the General Counsel, is in over their head, and there are serious concerns about the ethical and legal implications of some executive decisions, particularly in how employees are treated. While there were talented individuals at the company, the culture at the top was toxic, creating an unstable and unsustainable work environment. Proceed with caution.
