Desventajas
* Toxic, out of touch upper management. Need to get out of the company * Advertise as supportive, and trusting, but are extremely hands-on in nearly every decision * Reluctant to backfill open jobs * Consistent re-definition of the company (this time it will be different! attitude) * Stagnant growth * Arbitrary fixation on stock price amounts, without clear pathway. * C-level seems to constantly change mind about hiring, interns, etc. Contradicts own initiatives when opportunities arise to plan for the future * Wants to have innovation while the projects seemingly make a profit magically from the beginning, blatant misunderstanding of project management cycles * Inability to follow a product roadmap due to higher up meddling with deliverables. Additionally, I felt nothing but loyalty to the company. Worked there for many years. Was recruited and offered a position by another company unexpectedly. Sentiment by high ranking official was to not let the door hit you on the way out. Very telling of their view of talent. * Misleads about having "best in class benefits". Of course there is very little in the way to fact check this when told this by mgmt. * If you desire success, the lack of backfill can drive you nuts since you will always have work you can take on before the next cycle ends.
