Set My Career Back by Years

Pros

The good people are good. All 12 of them.

Cons

Eaze was a very hostile and uncomfortable working environment. Many senior staff (all white tech bros, even the ladies) have issues understanding what is acceptable workplace conduct/behavior and what is not. Many times in dealing with management, I was shunned, siloed away, and then chatted about behind my back via different office communication platforms. I was gaslighted by multiple VPs and Directors, and when I left, many of my former coworkers applauded my decision.

Pros

- Work environment is incredibly stimulating - Constantly changing, get experience working with multiple departments and directly impact the company's success - Strong leadership - Solid investment backing and rapidly growing revenue - Eaze isn't going away anytime soon. - First to market and leader in the industry. - A rock-solid legal team in an industry with many legally gray areas helps inspire confidence in company longevity. - Generous PTO and awesome HR. In a constantly changing / unstable environment (such is the nature of a startup / the marijuana industry), HR is reliable, consistent and works tirelessly to serve Eaze employees and improve their quality of life. - A great place to take your career to the next level - Diverse and evolving company culture - Awe-inspiring growth and success. - As "Flat" as a company can be at the stage it's at. Still a hierarchy and risk of being siloed, but vastly improved over the past year and upper management is consciously working to continue to improve. - Work with multiple departments and directly with execs on a daily basis to ensure daily operational success. - Great office locations - Incredible opportunity to grow/develop career and skill sets in entry and mid level positions (but you must pursue it aggressively, nothing is handed to you). - Eaze is not disrupting a market, they have created a new one and continue to develop new initiatives which are shaping the industry - There is no "Lyft to Uber" for Eaze. Eaze is well funded and internal numbers are constantly shattering records. As leadership regularly reminds the company, "Our biggest competition is ourselves - this is ours to lose." - Eaze is making money AND helping people at the same time. A rare combination in business! It makes for a very satisfying and fulfilling job. - Jim Patterson, the CEO, makes sure to be accessible and responsive to all employees (which is quite an accomplishment given his daily workload and responsibilities). He does not, however, initiate communication with employees he doesn't directly work with day-to-day which can be perceived as disinterest. If you are waiting for your opportunity to establish/develop your relationship with the CEO, don't. Just initiate the conversation and Jim will engage.

Cons

- Incredibly high level of stress with zero tolerance for excuses - Work most / all holidays and weekends due to peak hours being when everyone else is not at work. - Poor communication from leadership - #1 problem-solving method: "throw more money at it" which can be detrimental when a permanent/long-term solution is critical and/or time sensitive. - Management is inadequate at detecting signs of burnout and low morale and tends to abandon those who burn out. Many incredible employees have been let go or left because of this which is very costly to the company in terms of churn and acquiring/retaining talent. - If you want to grow your career within the company, you must do your current job perfectly while additionally exceeding expectations and doing the job you want to be promoted to. This proves to be all but impossible sometimes. When you set the bar too high and fail to meet expectations you're shooting yourself in the foot. However, not setting the bar high enough often results in missed opportunities. Finding the balance between consistently delivering what's expected and exceeding expectations on a regular basis is difficult but essential. - A barrier between mid-level employees and career development. For leadership positions (ie VP, Head of, Director, etc) Eaze does not promote from within. This creates a barrier for entry level employees as a result since mid-level positions only open up when a team lead/manager is fired or leaves.

Be Aware - Typical StartUp with no vision

Pros

In a good category, cannabis.

Cons

Horrid HR. Terrible lack of vision setting from the board. No vision. Brutal to vendors and treats customers for just their money not their loyalty. Jim Patterson is a known terrible personality from the tech world. Too young and inexperienced to be a 'CEO'.
