Unstable work environment - Anonymous employee Robin Powered Employee Review

Very positive from day one. The company is moving in an exciting direction, especially with its focus on AI and building products (based on what customers have asked for). It has a strong startup/early stage feel, with constant improvement and a focus on getting things done without a lot of red tape. Teams are open to new ideas, and focused on hierarchy is not really a thing here (compared to my previous role). The work environment is positive and supportive, and it’s easy to feel involved. Overall, I am feeling positive about the company direction

Nothing so far. I am only a few months in

- Great network of Robin alumni - Full of passionate, driven individual contributors - Product with potential if vision was clear

- Preach about in-office culture but continue to lay off Boston-area staff in favor of lower salaries for remote employees. - Extremely flat structure with no clear plans or pathways to advance internally. - Leadership has no clear vision and when questions are bubbled up about strategy or accountabilty they are either given lip service or treated with exasperation. - AI is the focus and "nimble," "scrappy" work is the name of the game. AKA: more work, fewer people, less collaboration. - People are the "heart" of the product but not the priority internally anymore. Hard to market a product for in-office culture without having one.
