Thank you for your feedback. As we grow, it's good to remember to keep challenging the many new leaders in "upper management" to find ways to operate openly and encourage new ideas. As for where we are going, we help make enterprise software simple with our Low Code Platform. We're going to keep doing that.

Pros

Cool office & perks, unlimited PTO.

Cons

My manager ultimately stabbed me in the back. Being a recruiter here is a trap. No one has your back, your are just an order taker and every stakeholder has unrealistic and unfair expectations. The founders have their hand in the entire recruiting process and it makes it so unbelievably hard. They want top talent but have not top talent pay. They are not flexible on RTO so good luck.
