Business outlook
Pros
Catchafire finds good employees by offering a nice starting salary (NYC range) and promises a feel good place to work given its mission. There are smart and super qualified workers at Catchafire.
Cons
Toxic CEO and VPs follow suit. Bullying, berating, swearing, and belittling are par for the course at this organization. If you complain, prepare for retaliation against you. HR is not empowered to do anything and other VPs mask the issues, especially the COO and Board. They're so focused on profitability, they're willing to let a maniacal CEO run the company into the ground. Rachael is not the CEO. It's Matt, who has a large ego and backwards values.
