Passive Aggressive, Spineless Leadership
Pros
It was a cool Montclair office, great perks. Chill people are working here. They give you a new computer and whatever other hardware/software you need to feel comfortable, and their office is always clean and temperate. They're probably still regarded as a startup, so they still burn through cash to get all the high-tech gadgets and stuff. Pretty thorough management tool they have as well.
Cons
Office politics were strange, unclear about what they want from you, will ditch you for "not performing" without giving concrete evidence. When I was hired, everything seemed great. A cool office space, and a team that I thought wanted to foster the growth of their employees. However, things went sour quickly. It was clear that I had fallen out of favor with senior management, when instead of talking to me, they began to ignore me and treat me as if I were not in the office. Then, I was made aware that my manager was literally tracking my activities throughout the day, right up to when I would use the bathroom. After barely 3 months of working here while still getting my bearings, I was fired for no other reason other than "production," a week after I was put on an actual solid plan and was hitting the numbers inside that plan. I didn't even get any concrete numbers to show that I was grossly underperforming or anything. I was just told I wasn't "doing enough." Others working for that company now will undoubtedly view me as an outlier, and I very well may be. However, that fact doesn't marginalise my experience with the early iteration of SiteTraker. They should be ashamed for how they handled this employee.
