Pluspunten
Neat product, when it worked. Forward thinking regarding AI implementation back when it was new.
Minpunten
Poor leadership:
- CEO was disengaged. Poor communication. Never held company meetings. After massive layoffs, promised zero layoffs for the next year and then held RIFs every 3 months.
- CTO would actively ridicule and make fun of others at every meeting - incredibly demoralizing. Would change his mind on a dime, often multiple times in the same meeting, and refused to put goals in writing so it was practically impossible to know what he wanted. Micromanaged teams outside his jurisdiction. Micromanagement + lack of defined goals = chaos / miserable work experience.
- Company would frequently lie about the status of their product and releases, claiming features were ready but then stringing their user base along for months while they frantically worked to get the software working.
