Pluspunten
- The product itself is clever and profitable. - The pay can be competitive. - If you’re dating or related to the family that owns the business, your job security is excellent.
Minpunten
- High turnover: most people I worked with were taking interviews in their cars. Very few last more than a year unless they’re family-adjacent. - Dysfunctional family dynamics are unavoidable, crying at desks, screaming matches, and tension is part of the culture. - They present themselves as a professional tech company, but it’s really a family business in disguise (something they don’t disclose upfront). - “Cutting-edge” technology isn’t unique, nothing you won’t see elsewhere. - Gossip of discriminatory practices circulates, and they rely heavily on unenforceable NDAs to scare people into silence. (Currently have a lawsuit against them) - Rumors about questionable treatment of non-citizen employees and at least one designer allegedly being let go after taking a religious holiday. - Management drama extends beyond the office — e.g., lawsuits involving the owner.
