Pros

I really enjoyed my manager and everyone I worked with on day to day basis.

Cons

The majority of the company was laid off on a muted conference call. It took about 5 minutes, no ability to ask questions or remark. So cowardly. Our contact was a new HR person who I’ve never met before. Guess the Raken tribe is BS, I felt pretty disrespected.

We appreciate your feedback and as someone who has been on the same receiving end of that call, understand how shocking and challenging it can be to process. There are always opportunities for growth, and I thank you for sharing your experience. I’m sorry we never had the chance to meet and if there is any area of support I can give you during this time of transition, please reach out.
