Q&A With EasyPost Employees

We had one of the best data engineering teams i’ve ever worked with and they have produced many accurate reports on fulfilment outlining all the problems. The exec team ignored these reports and hired in their own “analytics” team who fabricated numbers around fulfillment in an effort to stay in power by tricking the CEO.

CLO often sent the Engineering team on wild goose chases, promising that customers would sign up if we built features, but even if the team met deadlines to build features, The CLO couldn’t sign the customers on. Of course, these failures were never brought up again.

Terribly, CLO and COO went on a witch hunt and fired engineers they had personal vendettas against.

Layoffs were handled about as poorly as possible. They promised the automation team that they would keep their jobs in an all hands and then laid them off a few days later. They also randomly laid off people at night and left voicemails to long time Engineers and didn't even have the courtesy to let them know they were being laid off in a meeting. Exec team laid off hundreds of employees since they mismanaged company finances.

Diversity, back to school shopping, donating to homeless shelter, volunteering at homeless shelters

Top notch engineering team.

Friends of the CLO and COO despite lack of qualifications and experience.

Yes, they do have a fantastic volunteer program and great diversity intiatives.

Promotions happen often to those who suck up to the exec team or are friends of the exec team. Consolidation customers and fulfillment vendors were constantly churning and the business unit as a whole was badly tanking yet friends of the CLO who headed those departments kept getting promoted. Many “directors” who the CLO hired did nothing and were on constant vacation mode, openly bragging about how they got promoted for doing nothing. They laughed and said it’s “who you know not what you know” after all.

Suck up to the executives orelse you won't have any career growth.

Only people who sucked up to the executive team got promoted or were friends of the executive team got promoted. Anyone competent was pushed out by the executive team because they felt threatened and they pushed out strong leaders for political reasons. The nepotism was out of control and super junior kids who the CLO referred into the company kept getting promoted even though they were not performing. The friends of the CLO were unqualified and had no idea how to manage a team.

Executive team didn't like to promote company outings or fun, just follow their dictatorship like approach. Luckily the executive team (CLO, COO, President) was fired.
