Pros

Free lunch once a week

Cons

Constant management changes combined with constant shifts in technical direction create an ungratifying work environment. Top management eliminates employees who speak out in any way.

Dear Anonymous Former Employee, Thanks for your feedback. Cohere is working on a ground breaking technology which is first of it's kind. We are re-defining the way wireless works or is perceived. Forming-Storming-Norming-Performing is a natural course for a team to work together and can be seen in all organizations building new technology. A start-up team building something from scratch is more likely to experience this than big organizations with products in sustainable mode. Sometimes a shift is needed for a better outcome or to stay competitive with an ever changing market. The pace of a startup is certainly not easy and doesn't always work for everyone. We currently have a backhaul product already in customer trials and FWA solution that leverages the building blocks from our existing product. Our progress verifies that the approach is correct. One of the reasons we have parted ways with some people is because their skill set or energy level did not match the pace with rest of the team. We have taken those lessons and have made our interview process more stringent to screen candidates for similar backgrounds. We certainly hope that you have a better experience at your new work place. Thanks for the feedback and we will ensure we review ourselves at every step so that working at Cohere is a great experience for all in the Cohere family. Regards, Team Cohere

This place is like the family owned and operated business. They don't have any real solution to the market. Terrible culture of blame shifting and finger pointing.

Dear Anonymous Former Employee, Thanks for your feedback. At Cohere, we welcome open criticism and try to find value in the same. We have our backhaul radio UL certified now, and ready to see some customer feedback this month. We are also demonstrating our capabilities of Fixed Wireless Access solution starting the last quarter of this year. Everyone who works here is part of the Cohere family and has a right to be part of organization decisions. That is the reason many people like to work with a start up in Silicon Valley. Since, the review is anonymous, we are not sure why we parted ways with you, but we wish you best of luck for your next challenge and hopefully it is something that you believe in. Best Regards, Team Cohere

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review based on your experience working at Cohere Technologies. We value each of our employees and take our team members’ input very seriously. It’s important to realize that Cohere is working tirelessly to prove ourselves in the market. Over the past year we have gained incredible momentum. We have lofty goals and high expectations which drive demanding deadlines. If this type of environment doesn’t sound exciting, then it’s likely that your personality and/or needs make you less of a fit for a company like Cohere. We hope you find an environment that is a better fit for you, and thank you again for taking the time to post your review. Keep an eye on Cohere, even though you’ve moved on… great things are happening here and we hope you will still take pride in the contribution you made to our success!
