Senior Software Engineer • Current Employee
Pros: The tech stack is ok. The infra and cloud team has done amazing work on setting up the infrastructure.
Cons: This company’s growth strategy seems to revolve around relentless acquisitions, mirroring patterns seen with Sentieo and Tegus. The CEO’s primary tactic appears to be buying out competitors, yet there’s little evidence of a cohesive vision beyond these acquisitions.
This acquisition spree has led to serious mismanagement, leaving teams overwhelmed and stretched thin. Employees are expected to work grueling hours to support teams across the US, UK, and Canada, who rigidly stick to their 9-to-5 schedules, with little regard for the impact on those in other regions. There’s no consideration for work-life balance, and the executive leadership team (ELT) is out of touch with daily operations, handing control to newly acquired managers, only to let them go after they’ve delivered on short-term goals. Very frequent layoffs, The recent layoff of 8% of the workforce on November 4, 2024, is just another example of this “hire-and-fire” mentality. Despite these layoffs, the company is already claiming they’ll be hiring again soon, creating an unstable, high-turnover environment. For those seeking stability, respect, and a supportive culture, look elsewhere — this organization has built a reputation for its relentless churn of people and products.
