Pros
- The company offers a highly flexible WFH policy along with generous vacation days, so it helps support a good work-life balance.
- Peers are mostly collaborative and supportive, fostering a positive and inclusive team environment.
- The team is relatively diverse.
- As the ad platform is still relatively new, there are ample room for its growth and involvement in shaping feature improvements and contributing to the product roadmap.
Cons
- Communication from leadership and upper management is severely lacking. Given the company's relatively small size, one would expect more transparent and consistent communication. Unfortunately, this disconnect trickles down to middle management, resulting in limited visibility for the ICs on where the company is heading as a whole. The acquisition by Perion hasn't brought any noticeable improvements.
- No effective channel to voice general Q&As about the biz or flag process bottlenecks with leadership.
- Annual compensation has remained stagnant, with no regular increases or adjustments.
- Chronic understaffing has significantly increased workloads. Perion appears reluctant to open more headcounts despite operational demands,
- The company remains heavily Canadian-centric, with almost no product or engineering counterparts in other regions, which limits global perspective and slows down support in these areas.
