A very well run company - Anonymous employee SugarSync Employee Review

-Fair Pay -Opportunities for advancement and to use all of your skills -Management really trusts their employees and treat them like adults -Lunches provided on Fridays -Bagels provided on Monday -Fun team building and off-site events -Great Holiday events -Employees really care about the product and the company, striving to make work easier, cleaner, and more efficient It's a shame the company was shut down in the bay area. It was a great place to work with a lot of great people. You're treated like an adult. Employees can use their phones and the internet, but are trusted that they will complete their work and not slack. The trust is always rewarded with happy, hard-working employees. If you were a little late back from lunch if you went out to grab food, you were never hassled. Salary pay and no having to clock in/out. These people trusted their employees, and this trust was never taken advantage of. The happiest bunch of folks. I don' think I'll ever have a job quite like it again.

None that I can think of.

- Interesting core technology - Hard technical challenges, opportunities for learning - Decent benefits for a startup - Operations team is very good

- New CEO Mike Grossman has been a strong negative. Many employees have left under his tenure and the company is worse off as a result. - Grossman has hired/promoted friends and former colleagues, and some (but not all) of them have had questionable qualifications for their roles. - The new management structure has led to politics and empire building among the managers at the company, even though they publicly talk about honest and openness. - All the talk about "values" seems to be a smokescreen: the management team does not actually live up to to the standards they promote. - It doesn't seem like there is a place for this company in the market. The competition is very strong and better funded. In the big picture, it's hard to see a positive future for SugarSync other than an acquisition. And it's not clear who would want to buy the company, especially since a large number of key people have left. I don't think keeping the former CEO would necessarily have saved the company, but Grossman has not helped.
