Ventajas

Allegedly well-funded; aggressively small team; the view is relatively nice; the elevators work; free coffee; personal desk; gulag-esque work atmosphere

Desventajas

Zero regard for well-being of employees, fundamental flaws in the product, complete charlatan of a CEO. If you are an investor, or, alternatively, you are potentially looking at this company as a next step in your career, run, run as fast as you can. Let me paint a picture. Imagine you're working your hands to the bone for more than 50 hours a week, the whole "first one in, last one out"-type deal. Imagine if you're exceeding your KPI's by 125%, then, suddenly, you're blindsided at 12Pm on a Friday afternoon with the announcement that you and the rest of the sales and marketing team are being let go due to a pivot. Imagine that this all transpires with zero warning, and, on top of that, the management team has the chutzpah to offer you one week's severance. Happy Holidays, to you too. This is all less than six months' removed from raising 12m in capital. Where did the money go? Why is such a pivot necessary? If the product is so downright deficient, why sell investors on a fraudulent data point (hint: 90% is an outright lie, and I invite anyone screaming "slander" to allow for discovery of said supporting documents in any suit)? Why hire a team based on a complete and total lie? CircleBack's offerings sound downright-peachy on paper, but the fact of the matter is that the products are no more accurate than a google search. Do you want contact data that was, maybe, accurate six months ago? Do you feel like indirectly sharing your data with dozens of your closest competitors? Boy, do I have an opportunity for you.

Ventajas

This is a fabulous start up environment. The company has an ingenious and disruptive product that keeps getting better and better every day. Competitors are increasingly coming to CircleBack for the data because they know it's the best. The staff is open door and friendly. There was a house cleaning of employees earlier in the year and the management has learned from some early bumps to do a much better job of hiring people who fit into the culture and get along very well. Sales volume is skyrocketing to where the environment is nothing like it was just 6 months ago. It's just getting better and better.

Desventajas

Typical cons with any start up - focusing on the best opportunities and direction in which to grow. Having to sort through process and staff having to wear many more hats than they might initially expect, but that's a learning experience which is not necessarily bad. Bottom line is every work environment has problems, but the nice thing about CircleBack is each day gets noticeably better with more support, better technology, more opportunities, more staff, etc.
