Pros

Nice offices in Paris Nice annual event

Cons

- Too "sales-oriented" and not very "product/tech-oriented". Salesmen want "sexy" stuff, so many poor choices are made with a negative impact on the product and the teams. Sales-managers behave like heroes (no surprise, the CEO is a salesman himself). - Incredible despise for clients, as if they were all deeply ignorant regarding data related subjects. Do not go there if honesty is a value to you. - The "start-up spirit" is far behind and it has become a big place with lots of politics to handle if you want to get a promotion. Really. - And last thing that is my inner personal feeling: day-to-day racisme and misogyny disguised in "jokes" made by many managers.

Thank you for your sharing your feedback. We are sorry that this is your point of view but we believe it is not the truth and want to reiterate that it is not the kind of company and work environment we tend to build. With ‘Product vision’ as one of the 7 axis on our Masterplan, it is a key investment area. When planning the roadmap, we consult our clients to see what their needs are, and keep this in line with our product investment. Moreover, in 2019 we plan to significantly grow the R&D teams. Finally, we encourage everyone to contribute to our Product vision by organizing an annual worldwide Hackathon for teams to come up with their most disruptive ideas to build CS future. It is correct that we have grown a lot very quickly are no longer a start-up, but we try to retain the spirit of a small team through social events (quarterly parties, Friday beer etc.). Concerning promotions, they are based on Performance and internal opportunities. Managers play a big role here by giving continuous feedback to their team members. We're currently building Career Paths for all jobs, which will help teams and managers identify opportunities for growth, which they will be able to discuss in weekly 1/1 or end of quarter reviews - it’s really important to us to help people grow individually as well as in their team. As for the racism and misogyny, we of course do not tolerate such behaviour and encourage you to alert HR to be able to act in case of established facts.

Hi there. Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the hybrid flexibility in New York and received great mentorship during your time here. Over the past few years the company has gone through significant change a we've integrated multiple teams. We know that leadership transitions and evolving structures are felt by employees, and stability and clarity remain important focus areas as we continue to mature. Thank you again for having been part of the journey, and we wish you the best moving forward.

Pros

- the people (i work with on a daily basis). i've heard some not-so-great things and reviews about people in other departments, but i'm lucky to work with great people in my department and know many kind and hard working people here. - unlimited pto - hybrid - nice offices

Cons

there's good reason behind the overall rating of this company and % approval of the ceo are dropping. the company is not what it used to be. during the first ~6 months i thought it was so exciting and a super unique unicorn company, however, right after that you start to notice all of the things wrong with it. the overall culture also took a huge hit within the last year or so. after the last round of lay-offs, SO MANY people then left on their own because of burnout from the unorganized chaos + more money since it's fairly rare to get a significant enough raise here. i envy the people who got out before the ship sank - senior leadership who probably have no idea what we actually do beneath them aka lack of visibility and no clear path for growth - leadership changes and lay-offs left and right - LACK OF DIVERSITY.

Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective and for the more than three years you’ve spent with us, especially during a time of significant change. We’ve had to make some difficult decisions over the past few years, including including organizational changes as we've merged companies, cultures, and products together into one platform. These were not taken lightly, and we recognize the impact they’ve had on teams, morale, and our employees day-to-day experience. We also hear your point around compensation. We’d encourage you to speak with your manager to better understand how salary reviews and compensation decisions are approached, salary bands, and how this connects to your role and progression. You also raise important points around leadership visibility, growth, and inclusion. We know these matter, and they’re areas we’re actively working on... particularly around making growth paths clearer and strengthening connection between leadership and teams. As a current employee, we’d encourage you to share this feedback directly with your manager (in addition to the compensation piece), connect with your People Business Partner, or take part in our annual engagement survey launching in May/ quarterly pulse surveys so it can help shape ongoing action plans. Your voice really matters in how we move forward.
