Pros

Curve was always perceived as a company that people wanted to work for. That has now changed and everyone wants to get out - absolutely toxic with dreadful leadership (especially the CEO). The people are great, though the best talent has either left already or in the process of leaving. I struggle to see any current pros to working here.

Cons

The CEO is egotistical with no grasp of the true company culture. Any senior leadership who challenges him is removed from the business and honestly, he's doing them a favour. He sprouts information as if he's giving a Ted Talk but there is zero implementation of any of these principles. Processes are non-existent to the point of general confusion and finger pointing to make sure you're not the person who ends up being removed from the business. Despite hiring strong people (mostly) this causes friction between different teams. Long term strategic vision doesn't exist. They yo-yo between growth, revenue and everything in between. As a result a lot of projects being worked on end up becoming deprioritised and the hard work being wasted. "Curve Culture" as it is sprouted is long gone. The way it used to be died a long time ago now and the new culture is horrific. People are scared to speak up (and when they try and do it anonymously they are publicly threatened by the CEO in Slack).
