Hi it's Xander from the current leadership team. Thanks for writing a review of your time with UnderwriteMe. Our culture is something we are very proud of and we agree that our team is really what makes it a great place to work. With our investment in our Product function over the last few months, we are excited to see our products go from strength to strength as we continue to capture and dominate new markets - thank you for being part of that journey so far. We agree that sometimes there is so much potential and scope for growth with our company and people experience we can be guilty of trying to do everything and letting our enthusiasm run wild. With the introduction and refinement of OKRs and the new articulations of both our strategy and value system, we hope that we much better at adopting the required laser focus than perhaps we have been in the past. Do keep giving us feedback on how that comes across in the business.

Pros

For many years it was an exciting, challenging and highly collaborative env built around a flat mgt structure that accepted risk in the pursuit of innovation. Some great foot soldiers remain in the trenches, hence the 2 stars.

Cons

In recent years mgt change has killed all of the positives. A series of bad choices at the c-suite level has resulted in in-fighting, no real strategy, and a re-org that which will take years to recover from. I expect some sycophantic UME lackey will respond by saying I was a victim of the re-org or challenging what I’ve said. Such defensive responses are clearly signs of a company in trouble. Leaving was one of the best career decisions I have ever made.
