Pros

Company hires young, smart, ambitious people who are eager to learn and perform, so you’re surrounded by great energy all the time.

Lots of opportunity to have a real impact on the product.

Recent changes to company perks are a nice touch, including free food, drinks, and rewards.

Cons

Only the sales team are shouted about. We have some people who work day and night and get next to no recognition, including in our dev team and tech support team. It appears that some people in the team get rewarded (sending to work abroad on request) while people here just as long get verbal gratitude at best. Sales and pilots seem to get elaborate promotions and position changes (I haven’t ever even met half of the C team). Where is this for Cambridge? There are people on the team (e.g., product, dev) who should be running departments and being enabled, but they’re basically reporting to sales.

Advice to Management

Enable your best people to lead and don’t bring in other departments to dictate what goes on. There are long standing people on your staff who are ready to leave due to a lack of this. Promote internally. Also more importantly please do something about the lack of racial diversity.
