It's ok. - 3D Programmer Fathom (California) Employee Review

The people who work there

They’re growing so fast, not looking at the big picture and giving their current employees the help they need and deserve.

Some forward-thinking, nice people and ideas happening here. Unfortunately these ideas don't seem to be supported by leadership.

Obstruction of contract completion and non-payment of written milestone agreements. Avoidance of signing contracts, shifty behavior in general. They didn't pay my final milestone because they thought I wouldn't have the time/resources to pursue it. In addition, internal politics were crazy, employees badmouthing one another and senior management. Apparently nobody gets stock grants (why would you work for salary only at a startup as anything but a very junior software engineer?) and employees are paid below the Bay Area average for their experience. Terrible location.
