What does the leadership team need to get better at?
CEO needs to let people do their jobs and stop micromanaging.
Constant turnover. Rash decision making by the CEO prevents any sort of growth and creates a difficult working environment
Incompetent wannabes pretending their decisions benefit the products and the company.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Base comp is on the low side adn the stock options/equity will never be worth anything.
CEO can't get out of his own way. Only listens to his own ideas.
We were promised a 401k, however after many months we still haven't received information regarding this.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Several months ago I would have rated this with a much higher score, but a high rate of turnover has made this company much more difficult to tolerate. The CEO is constantly firing people.
The person who singlehandedly decided to rewrite the entire application (without any dire need for that) in the worst combination of language and framework possible was promoted to team lead. That is pretty descriptive of the management and some people in the team who support him.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
The CEO's micromanaging makes the culture toxic. Managers cannot achieve their goals because the CEO is constantly changing the approach
Too many things to mention here. Stop using the shiniest tools and tech, go for sturdy industry standards, we're not building rockets here, start caring about processes and stop ignoring QA. Your velocity gets you nowhere with such an execution.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
