Pros

Open Kitchen, Free Lunches on Friday.

Cons

PLEASE BEWARE! If you find your way through the application process and accept their below market value offer, you’ll be ushered (often without choice) into one of two directions; the XYZ domain registry side or the payday loan media conglomerate of the business. The company is notorious for hiring and promoting friends and family over those seemingly more qualified for the open positions. The environment and culture that is preached from the top down is one of 60 hour work weeks, unaccountability, nepotism, lack of trust and disrespect for the team. This behavior trickles down to middle-management and employees frequently suffer the consequences. This helps explain the high-employee turnover with a team of 30 people 2-3 leave every month be greener pastures. The other positive reviews listed stating they will “listen” or that they are "customer focused" and there is "room to get involved" are comically fake. You can be 'promoted' by title one day and have all responsibilities pulled by the time you get back on Monday. Do not, under any circumstance, think this will be anything but an abusive professional relationship.

Thanks for taking a moment of your day to let us know how your experience was. We would like to start off by apologizing to you for not meeting your expectations. Our hope is that every person that walks through our doors as an employee or even a candidate would walk out having felt our passion and desire to be nothing short of the best. You have the right impression of us from the standpoint that we do work hard. While we acknowledge that not every company is for every person, I’m not exactly sure how you got “30 people …. 2-3 leave every month” type of figures. Factually speaking, we can assure you that this is not the case.

Thank you for your feedback. We completely agree with you that we take care of our employees. We also agree that there is a steep learning curve. great career opportunities, and a wide open door to provide feedback. Based on your review, I think you're saying that it's difficult to adhere to project deadlines due to a tough task master. One of the things we have implemented is a mentoring program where we provide coaching to everyone, including how to be a better leader. Hopefully this will help tough task masters become nurturing developers of talent. And you say you travel extensively? We should talk about that. I don't think any of our employees have traveled more than 10% of their time here. You may want to consider one of our many other position opportunities if traveling has become a burden to you. Talk to you soon!
