Great vision, excellent product, amazing customers

Founders had a real vision for solving a significant problem for customers in an elegant way.

Many happy corporate customers in the F500- F100

Startup w/ some growing pains
|
|
- If you are proactive and driven, you can create a valuable learning experience for yourself and get experience in various aspects of running a company
- Opportunities for leadership in a small company
- Technical and data-driven work
- Interesting and prominent client base
|
- Small company with some micromanagement and unnecessary concern
- Some disconnect between US-based team and European team
- Leadership sometimes reacts too quickly rather than thinking about long-term strategy

Toxic Culture and Terrible Management
|
|
- The idea behind the product is good and there is a large market for it. They've attracted large companies to buy into what they do
-Data science team was filled with l talented, smart, and hardworking individuals
-The company was tiny, so you had the opportunity to see many different parts of the business
|
-There was extremely high turnover. Over 75% of the people I worked with in the US office were no longer working there less than a year after I left. .
-The CEO and President are married (they don't mention this in the interview process). In a small company, this makes it impossible to voice feedback and enact change. They both are severely lacking in management and basic people skills. They are oblivious to when they are blatantly rude to customers. They are also are not technical and have no understanding of the work their employees do.
-I have never seen managers more distrustful of their employees. Their first instinct is to find someone to blame when something goes wrong. Micromangement is their only form of management.
-Development was done off-shore and no one was held accountable for meeting deadlines

Modern technology stack and interesting challenges
|
|
Being part of a full re-write of a product with modern technology stack with big responsibilities has been a professional development booster. Being trusted with creating something so core to the business and taking a lead role has been gratifying, even if challenging at times.
|
Deciding on the tech path and right stack for the specific case was a challenge in itself with some frustrations but also needed learnings.

Very Toxic Culture
|
|
- interesting data
- a lot of opportunity in the marketplace for this type of analysis
- small company so ability to make a bigger impact
- the Boston based director of engineering seemed sharp if he is still there
|
- No planning or project management process at all. Very reactive with daily changes in priority. CEO's wife is the head of product and de-facto boss of the company. She has passion for the job but it is not backed up by a lot of skill in either the managerial soft people skills, project management or technical product knowledge so it ends up just being micro management and chaos which is hard to work around.
- An absolutely awful offshore software development team. They are protected by the leadership and openly fight any upgrades to any of the systems or new technologies. Very hostile and uncooperative.
- Generally a chaotic, toxic environment and a culture of making unreasonable demands and blaming the employees. Extremely high turnover.

Honestly, nothing to write about.
|
Here it goes.
Hire and fire people LIKE CRAZY, I have seen over 20 people leave in LESS THAN 6 months which is literally MORE THAN HALF of the company.
The co-founders are totally non technical, and just rely on emails and other involvement in meetings to judge employees performance, there is NO TECHNICAL LEADERSHIP at all.
The data scientists and engineers just try stuff and learn by trail and error, in the hard way.
The company is TOTALLY CHAOTIC and HIGLY DISORGANIZED.
Some people get to work on some interesting parts of the products (which is literally very few) and other people are asked to just maintain.
The leadership team then thinks that those working on these projects are smart and then gets rid of the other team members.
Highly underpaid and the pay stays almost the same for years....

The office space and location were the only pros.

Terrible experience working at this company. While the employees are all hardworking and generous, the leadership is rude, weak and overbearing. They do not pay an adequate salary, and there is no room for growth or true learning opportunities here.

Great IoT CRE analytics software and terrific data science and development teams. It should disrupt the CRE world. Very expensive 6 or 7 figure annual SaaS solution averages over a year to close, but is well worth it and well known clients are very happy. Billion dollar potential. This would be a terrific opportunity if management could get its stuff together. Or it could fail.
|
Leadership is weak. Sales leadership is unstable. Highly intelligent founders but no experience leading employees results in amateur mistakes and poor employee morale.
