Pluspunten

There are some good people at this company- fun, talented, decent people that are good co-workers There is flexibility with hours/time off

Minpunten

This is a toxic place. There are a group of people in leadership who insist on making this little software company a place full of drama and politics and backbiting. This group has been consistently promoted. The CEO has admitted to setting goals that he knows are not stretch goals, but completely impossible to reach, because he thinks people will not work as hard if they don't have impossible targets. As a result, someone is always being berated for failing against goals that are completely absurd. It is well known that bringing up new ideas or suggesting that anyone in leadership might want to look at something in a different way is a recipe to be completely ostracized, if not ousted. The worst thing about the company is all the "make work more human" stuff they spout, because it is a marketing ploy. This is not a place where people are treated with respect and given paths to grow.

I take your feedback very seriously and ask that you contact me directly to discuss your concerns. What you are describing is not the company I know. The company I know prides itself on respect and treating one another fairly. Our employees consistently report that our culture is extremely positive and unlike any other they have worked in. If you are seeing something I am not, I encourage you to talk with me or a member of the HR team. Without open dialogue we cannot address your concerns. Talking with a member of HR can be done in complete trust, without fear of retaliation, as that is not tolerated. Building a great culture takes constant work, perseverance, and a level of vulnerability. This starts with living our values and supporting one another with behavior that is respectful and unifying. I sincerely hope that you will accept this invitation to meet with me. - Steve Pemberton
