Review from Engineering Dept

Continuos learning and gaining experience

Review from HR Dept

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Generally very repetitive. Most days are almost the exact same. Having more responsibilities would for sure help.

Review from Customer Support Dept

New hires need more time spent to see how tenure agents work, not weeks and hours of theory, that at the end we barely know how to apply. Also, in terms of benefits, more inclusive with working mothers, like reduced hours or flexible schedule.

Review from Operations Dept

This would help: More flexibility, better Workforce Management for schedules, so changes within the day would not be needed, Less pace as there are too many mistakes being made, and seeing other colleagues taking shortcuts. No 100% chat days, no double chats as this is recipe for mistakes.

Review from Customer Support Dept

There are too many blockers and bottlenecks in our approval processes

Review from HR Dept

The executive team is bad at decision making and trusting people

Review from HR Dept

our ceo is not inspiring and doesn't seem to care about our employees, the culture, or doing the right thing but we also aren't doing well financially.....so to be bad at both is not great

Review from HR Dept

Improve leadership's communication, eliminate toxic positivity and be appropriately candid. Acknowledge attrition and lack of granted headcount by adjusting expectations and modifying goals and priorities so that employees aren't in a continuous burnout loop.

Review from Design Dept

Fire the CEO and CMO.

Review from Engineering Dept

There seems to be a specific dollar amount on our "woke" culture, and it can be thrown out for the right amount of money or exposure -- witness continuing to support Joe Rogan

Review from Engineering Dept

Lack of rewards / no path to significant compensation growth on an annual basis. Lack of clarity or empowerment to focus on important work. Lack of incentives to retain good people. Too much celebration of mediocrity.

Review from Engineering Dept

My lack of excitement has more to do with the global pandemic than work. I've had a hard time feeling anything like excitement in a long time.

Review from Customer Support Dept

What do you like best about your company?

Opportunity to build an amazing team atmosphere

Review from HR Dept

What would you most like to see improved at your company?
