Ventajas
Currently people who are boots on the ground are doing an amazing job with what they have to work with right now. I’m talking everyone under director level.
Desventajas
If you’re curious to know about this company, I can tell you that about four people have quit in the last few months with absolutely no job lined up — they just left on the spot because of how overwhelmed they were and how poorly the directors and upper management treat employees. And honestly, these were some of the hardest-working, most talented people at the company. What’s even worse is that none of those roles have been filled. Everyone else is just absorbing the extra work with no additional pay, recognition, or support. That pretty much sums up what’s going on here. People are doing the work of what feels like 10 different departments. I know remote work sounds nice, but let me tell you, everyone is struggling. The culture is horrible too. There’s never even time to have a quick conversation about how someone is doing because everyone is buried under so much stress and work. Pierre and Menaka have to see what’s happening. At this point, people constantly talk about whether they’re intentionally running PMI into the ground and cleaning house, or if they’re just so out of touch that they genuinely don’t care. It’s really sad because my teammates are incredibly hardworking and genuinely care about what they do, but it’s gotten to the point where almost everyone around me is talking about interviewing elsewhere because things have become so bad. Seriously, if you’re thinking about applying here, I would reconsider it. Especially if you’re applying for anything below a director-level role — you will not have support. Another thing worth mentioning is that there’s absolutely no room for mistakes at this company. If you make one, be prepared to be called out publicly in huge Teams chats or meetings instead of having a constructive conversation about it. And to be clear, this behavior comes directly from management, not the employees actually doing the day-to-day work. It’s honestly really sad because I started at this company with so much hope. At first I genuinely loved working here. But over time, I started seeing how management treats employees. I work 12-hour days regularly, and when I’ve asked my director for help, I’ve been met with nothing — no support, no solutions, and no raise — even though I’m now doing the jobs of three other people and far beyond what I was originally hired to do. I’m disappointed and sad. Soon the cracks are going to start showing to attendees at our events and in our products too, because there’s only so much employees can keep carrying before everything starts falling apart.
