Pros

- nice offices - has healthcare

Cons

There are too many to list. Alex taking over felt like a last-ditch effort. The co-founders messed up the business, not knowing how to build teams or innovate. Alex is just another CEO head, with only numbers, reputation, and ego. He'll say he cares about the employees, but it's clear that employees are just numbers and are easily replaceable in his mind. He'll let go of employees just like the CEO of better.com did, yes, over Zoom, in less than 3 minutes, with no explanation other than "business decision". The culture is rotting from the inside out, with people at the top level who doesn't know how to lead or recognize people. It's turned into a culture of cliques, where your work can be claimed by others as their success, and people are unsupportive for fear of falling into the "out" group. They claim it's a diverse place to work, but ONLY by location. It's a very toxic environment. If you can find something better, please do so.
