Pluspunten

The team in the NYC office is awesome, there's some really great people, great technology and the office is in a good location. The data scientists are world class and have developed a solution utilizing AI that is extremely intelligent and can really help PR professionals.

Minpunten

Just like a lot of start ups, they are still trying to figure a lot of things out. Management will tell you something to get you motivated but then never follow up with it. There is a complete lack of transparency and the management have their favorites who can do what they want while the others get treated differently and barely get acknowledged. HR claim to care a lot about culture and doing the right thing but that was not evident. There is a huge amount of turnover, in just a few months more than half of the team left the business. Management barely acknowledged or explained why this was the case and what was being done to resolve this issue. There is a lack of support and you're left to figure everything out on your own. Autonomy is great but support is always going to be needed. Management make themselves readily available for certain people and not for others. There were instances of having to wait 3 days just to get time with my manager, had they not been remote and were in the office like everyone else then this likely would not be the case. Senior management seem confused about where they want to go and what the overall business strategy is. You're allowed to work from home 2 days a week but you will be judged for doing so, even though there has been a pandemic for the past 2 years. Everyone has to be located in NYC and be in the office 3 days a week unless you're management which is counterintuitive.

I’ve been with Signal AI for several years now, and the standout feature is undoubtedly the quality of the people. From the CEO and leadership team to the individual contributors, there is a genuine sense of care for one another and a shared drive for the company’s success. It is easily the most inclusive environment I’ve ever worked in. A few other highlights: Product Heritage: Unlike companies just now jumping on the AI "bandwagon," AI is in Signal’s DNA. Having been around for 10+ years, the tech is mature and provides legitimate, measurable value to CCOs. Strategic Growth: There is massive excitement around the new Risk proposition. It’s a huge market pivot that is already opening doors to new opportunities. Autonomy: As a manager, I have a great deal of autonomy to lead my team, but I always know that support is available from leadership if I need to escalate a challenge. Momentum: The recent fundraise with Battery Ventures is a huge vote of confidence. Being part of a portfolio with such a reputable firm brings a lot of stability and expertise to our next phase of growth. Pace: The company moves fast. It’s refreshing to work in an environment that prioritizes innovation over slow, "political" decision-making.

Minpunten

Like any high-growth scale-up, we’ve had some growing pains-although nothing too major. Internal communication has had a few bumps in the past; historically, the company practiced extreme transparency (sharing almost too much!), which made any shift in communication style feel like a bigger deal than it was. However, it feels like we’ve found the right rhythm lately as the business matures.

Pluspunten

the people are mostly great and the product / reporting offerings are great in many ways. it's clear that many of our clients value us enough to work through the bumps in the road. it could be a great company—the potential is very much there if leadership can get it together. some of the kindest and most genuine people I've met in a corporate environment who i hope will be lifelong friends. i feel i am paid well and i'm happy with the benefits david b is excellent. he's smart, kind, and clearly very passionate about his company.

Minpunten

onboarding was non-existent, basically had to learn everything from my peers. tribal knowledge reigns supreme and not many processes are written down / the wiki is often very out of date. not great for consistency. no formal process to make sure you're prepared to sell the product / services. some upper leadership are pretty awful...sexist, misogynist and downright rude. doesn't seem like any of their peers call them out on it so it goes unchecked. pretty messy vision for the company at times. it seems to change direction frequently with not much comms or enablement. seems it keeps trying to find its niche where it can be a true market leader. hopefully they pick something soon and finally stick with it. risk seems kind of promising? morale can be pretty bad due to a culture of overworking, which comes from the top unfortunately. leaders need to set a better example of boundaries, particularly after hours and while on vacation.

Thanks for taking the time to write this. It’s not easy to share that kind of feedback, but it’s exactly the type that helps us get better. A lot of what you mentioned (onboarding gaps, shifting direction, unchecked behaviour, and burnout) has come up in other feedback too, and we’ve already started building actions directly off the back of it. We’re working on improving onboarding and documentation, tightening and sticking to a clearer strategy, addressing behaviour when it crosses the line, and setting better examples around workload and boundaries. We know there’s still work to do, but we’re committed to making Signal AI a place where people can thrive, feel supported, and do their best work. Feedback like yours helps us focus on the right priorities and keep improving every day.
