So much potential... - werkgeversreview Anonieme werknemer bij KnowledgeVision Systems

Correctly set process and software development cycles. Strong management team with solid background.

Immense technical debt. Still, the company was willing to acknowledge and fight it.

(initially) some very bright people and a fun work environment. Everyone was juiced to be working for an exciting startup with an excited leader, even though the goals were always a little vague.

Imagine a shotgun marriage of video and Powerpoint and you have a basic understanding of the product. Perfect for the ADD sufferers in corporate America, but the lay user will wonder - do I look at the person talking? Or at the text information presented simultaneously? Or...? Add to this a founder who loves starting businesses but hates running them, a revolving door for upper management (being a friend or former colleague of the founder guaranteed big money and an impressive title, and six months until their total disillusionment) and a product being redesigned/relaunched every five minutes, and you get the picture... The founder is the Trump of small businesses - never admits a mistake, blames others, takes unearned credit for himself, and plays fast and loose with the truth, hoping no one will notice. (We did.) Needlessly creates/encourages a have/have not culture.
