We were admittedly a disorganized startup. Aggressive hiring and bureaucracy have just shifted the problems.

What is the best part about your compensation package?

decent balance of salary benefits and equity

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Go back to acting more like a startup and encourage employees to make a difference instead of creating a facebook like bureaucracy.

What makes you most happy at work?

Most people are really positive about the company. It would be an amazing company if the employees were really empowered. There's so much potential here!

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

You're not at Amazon anymore. Learn to question, prioritize, plan and think about customer experience. Are you effective or are you just doing what you're comfortable doing? Why not talk with other people before you do something?

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

The bureaucracy has just entrenched the cliques. Encourage people to raise questions about product direction, engineering priorities and even the organization. If the people who build the product aren't making suggestions about the organization, it's because they don't think they'll be listened to.
