      Pros

      The staff are incredible — smart, kind, and hardworking. Exciting industry with unique opportunity to work with live music promoters. Great clients. Open vacation policy

      Cons

      The CEO’s leadership creates a toxic, unstable environment. For instance: -Feedback is vague, contradictory, and gaslighting, often delivered without any concrete examples. -Communication and strategy are weak, due to inexperience. -Most of his direct reports eventually get fired. Employees are afraid to speak up due to fear of retaliation from leadership, which silences honest feedback and erodes the company culture. All the talent and opportunity in the world can’t overcome the damage caused by current leadership.

      Need to checking in more often.

      Pros

      There are a lot of great people at Hive. They’re smart, kind, and really care about the customers.

      Cons

      Unfortunately, the leadership team (especially the founders) lack the experience and skills to run this company. They have no idea how to manage people, build process, or create a good culture. Turnover is high, especially for roles that report to the CEO. While feedback is technically encouraged, it often leads to retaliation. The culture is driven more by fear than support, and it shows.
