Pros
The benefits are decent and comparable to other start-ups in terms of health care and salaries. Find these benefits elsewhere, they don’t make up for the terrible executive leadership at the center of a toxic company.
Cons
The executive leadership team is at the heart of every issue with Stavvy. They spew toxicity. This is, without a doubt, the most childish team of "professionals" you can find. They enjoy their titles and do nothing to showcase the skills required to be deserving of them. It is a testament to the other leaders in this organization that anything gets done at all. With a CFO who is in way over his head, a CRO with the inability to lead and little understanding of sales to warrant such a title, and a COO who will do very little to question her team in fear of falling out of favor with the CEO and CRO, this ELT is too big for their britches, way overstaffed, and incapable of sticking to a plan. The CEO is a narcissist who shows little interest in those outside the executive circle and will quickly turn on someone the moment he loses interest in them. He believes his unprofessional quips make him trendy and interesting when, in fact, they are nothing more than inappropriate. His team never questions him because they know to question him is to lose his favoritism which means the executive team spends more time sucking up to him than doing their jobs well. He is the root cause of toxic positivity at this company. They will never accept their faults, and even with a year of abysmal ratings from company engagement surveys, which only get worse with each quarter, they believe that their ratings are not justified and do nothing to make improvements. Rather than rewarding those who do well in the organization, the executive team has their favorites who have become untouchable and receive raises and promotions regularly despite not performing in a capacity deserving of such recognition. Such favoritism can be seen in the continued bolstering of the VP of People who has maintained her position, and even received raises, while the employee scores show a steady decline of dissatisfaction with little done to turn things around. They are well aware of these poor Glassdoor reviews and have even asked others at the company to post positive reviews to improve their ratings rather than taking a critical look at the feedback being given and making significant improvements. The majority of the positive reviews posted recently on this site are at the hands of the People Team to hide what their employees are trying to say. These poor reviews will almost always be viewed by the executive team as a reflection of layoffs and other similar factors and never as a direct reflection of their leadership style.
