Pros

+ the software has solid bones

Cons

- this was a place where everyone knew everyone, and you encouraged your friends to apply. I can't recommend anyone to apply here now. - company was purchased by a PE firm, Diversis Capital, and now every initiative is strictly about cutting costs, inflating market presence, and pumping up company value to selloff in the next few years. - these guys DO NOT CARE. If they could gain a 2 percent return from cutting your throat, there will be blood. - can you accomplish 80 hrs of work in 40? - we used to care about our customers and take care of them, now the customer care is only to keep them happy enough

Pros

Working remotely has been very nice

Cons

The company has gone downhill very quickly. Our culture was already on its way out due to covid, but since the new acquisition we have had major pay cuts and an overall feeling of "we don't really care about you". Pay Isn't competitive, there are no real perks aside from health insurance and 401k. And in many departments, due to how we are structured you can't take real time off without getting extremely behind with your responsibilities.

Pros

Salaries are ok, and they have flexible PTO

Cons

Fishbowl is owned and managed by a private equity firm, Diversis. The people at Diversis have ONE goal - sell the company and many millions of dollars. They will mow down ANYTHING that stands in the way of that. And that is ok, that’s what they do. However, that ‘anything’ is probably you. I have seen layoff after layoff. Good, talented people removed, great leadership torn down, and it has left the C-Suite shaking in their boots, unable to keep it together, and absolutely void of information and knowledge of what direction they are going in. When I first joined, it was fantastic. Now? I would recommend it to my enemies. Do yourself a favor and don’t even bother, because what it looks like on the outside is farrrrr from the inside. It’s a real shame, because when I first joined in 2022, I was on cloud 9. People were amazing, the job was great, and my boss was the best I’ve ever had in my life. The culture was fantastic, and I was genuinely excited to do my best. Now, all of that has dwindled to something unrecognizable. All that was good has been stripped away and turned into a sweatshop for the guys at the top looking to sell. One of their company values is ‘truth and love’ which they try to push, but is complete BS. Save yourself.
