SafetyCulture reviews about "team"

The company hit its peak around the unicorn valuation and EdApp acquisition, and strategic clarity has been in decline ever since. AI arrived and caught the executive team largely unprepared. The tech stack is legacy, the response has been reactive, and VCs have moved on to AI-native companies. The result is a business under real financial pressure, making increasingly short-term decisions and framing them as strategy. Career progression is where the gap between rhetoric and reality is most visible. People consistently took on work well above their pay grade, with direct managers actively advocating for promotion. Those advocacies went nowhere. The company was extracting senior-level output at lower-level cost, with no path to recognition or advancement.

I did not find any cons.

None that I can think of.

Heavily leaning towards AI automation, so job security is a concern

- Pacing is fast (this can be good or bad) depending on what's your preference. For many this is a con but this should be something someone researches about before applying in an earlier stage high impact organization like SC. We're not just pushing buttons here - Teams can get siloed due to focused work and output so be thoughtful and intentional about connecting with the broader teams - Nothing's perfect. There's growing pains in SC as with many other businesses. What's important is being able to action opportunities and learn from misses which is what we do

Previous CEO hired his mates rather than the right people for the job. Lots of ex-finance people as Directors and Leaders, and it's their fist time in a tech business. Product team are also inexperienced and have typically led smaller startups. Competitors have caught up and are ahead in many ways so win rate in RFP's is low. Recently there has been a an alignment shuffle into verticals without a product strategy to support ENT customers in those verticals. Basically we are not making the right features that customers have been asking for for years, Pay and bonuses are well below average and you are responsible for attrition. You could start the year with $100k churn because of a product limitation or a a bad and then have to make it up with net new business.

The culture has significantly degraded over the past couple of years brought by recent changes in the leadership team especially in product and engineering. Real high performers are not valued and being victimised by too much politics and are exiting the company as a result. Everyone looking busy to keep their jobs safe but not achieving real meaningful outcomes. Such a shame for a company with so much potential and a good mission. You need to show your face in the office at least 3 days a week to prove you're "engaged" and you're a "culture fit". Nothing to do with your contributions and outcomes you achieve.
