Pros

The team (except management) is talented and works well together. People watch out for each other and stick together, mostly because of the toxic environment the CEO has created.

Cons

The product simply doesn't work. Overly complicated and poorly designed. The CEO is a micromanager and extremely misleading when it comes to the business and future of the company.

Thank you for sharing this, especially as a former member of our team. It means a lot to me that you still care enough about Armorblox to speak out about your past experience. I'm glad that you found some great people, and we hope friends, during your time as a member of the team.

Pros

I feel like I bonded with the team super quick (might be the nature of startup life or simply all the different ways we are able to connect). When I interviewed I feel like I heard the phrase "team over self" a lot which is one of the reasons I chose to join. When I started I saw this phrase in action daily, whether it was a small task that others are willing to jump in and help with (like washing dishes when we were in the office) or just sending a small Friday hello message to a teammate you haven't heard from (while working remotely), I feel that Armorblox really puts culture and people first. When it comes to career development, I feel that my manager and I are in constant communication on where I am now and where I want to be and what actionable steps we can do to get me there. I feel supported and taken care of! As a startup, you might have to wear many different hats, but this is a part of the job I love. I really got to explore different options to see what really interested me and pursue those routes as I grew with the company.

Cons

It is definitely a fast-paced world (like most startups). This is definitely disclosed beforehand, so be prepared!
