Pros

A lot of individual contributors. Collaborative. Incredible customers.

Cons

A lot of attrition at most senior levels. This delays progress by months if not a year at a time. Typical to hear: “in my three years here I’ve reported to four different bosses and seen two COOs, two CMOS and three CROs.” Etc.

We're sorry to hear about your experience. That is the polar opposite to the experiences that we strive to deliver - and also, to the feedback that we receive from employees. We work hard to ensure that our people leaders are given the tools and resources to be effective managers - and that our employees are aware of our job architecture framework which outlines roles, responsibilities and expectations by level across the organization.
