A sinking ship, full of snakes and rats.

Pros

The company is full of mid to low level employees who are amazing at what they do. These are the people who have kept the operation running despite the work of management.

Cons

We have to start at the top. Doug the CEO is the most out of touch and pathetic leader I have ever seen at a company. He is the epitome of failing up, a failed NFL kicker with delusions of grandeur, Doug will endlessly spout metaphors and jargon like he is a coach at halftime. The difference is that if a coach made as many mistakes as Doug, they would have been fired long ago. From sending videos to the whole company from his vacation home in lake Tahoe, or while driving to Vegas, or worst of all from Burning Man, Doug constantly finds ways to prove that he has no concept of the struggles of his employees. I have never met someone I believe in less than I believe in Doug. The entire C Level is stripping the company to make as much money for themselves as possible. They hire past coworkers and friends to fill highly paid leadership roles, padding the company out with yes men. They are constantly traveling across the country for "strategy meetings" and coming back with no plan. They would frequently "reorganize" the company with no plan for what it would look like after terminations. In some cases firing Managers and then having no plan of who their teams would report to. There were 5 rounds of layoffs in 2023. Every time employees were told "this round will buy us x number of months, and we will be safe." only to have another round a few weeks or months later. C Level never took a pay cut or dropped bonuses to save employees, until the 5th layoff that took place THE WEEK BEFORE CHRISTMAS. If you are an investor, pull your properties and find a better company to work with. If you are a renter, find a different place to live. And if you are an employee, start working on your resume, you will need to be applying for jobs soon. The ship is sinking, and the clowns at the top are stripping it for parts while the rest of you try to hold it together.

Pros

Work from home and flexible with PTO.

Cons

Doug is exactly what you'd think a CEO who played professional sports and then decides he's a business man would be. Perhaps he needs PR training but sending out weekly videos from 5 star hotels, vacation homes, BURNING MAN, Napa, and other destinations days after yet another layoff is tactless and you'd think someone would bring that to his attention. There is no business plan besides "hold on while we try to get more money and if that doesn't work we will just do another round of layoffs and then tell everyone to have a no meeting day to recoup." Management may be the most useless heap of human flesh I have yet to experience. They could, however, teach a masterclass in corporate jargon and how to get through a company meeting without giving anybody any material information. To boot, they have a terrible reputation for what they actually do...managing homes. Mynd wants to be a PropTech company cause Doug is a Bay Area groupie, but this is just a poorly run management company and is not long for this world.

Pros

- Some of the people I worked with has been really nice

Cons

- They will always find a reason why you cannot be promoted, however find every reason why you should do a senior role's job otherwise you're not being an "A Player" - They gaslight, they gaslight, they gaslight! I don't know how many emails I've sent with screenshots and they would set up a meeting to talk to me in person or just tell me briefly in passing before they head into another meeting and when I reference back to what they said to me, they would say something along the lines of "I think you've misunderstood me" or "Thats not what I said." They would give me attitude if I counter argue and made me think I was crazy. -They said my job was safe because they need me. Well I ended up leaving and sure enough: The next round of layoffs got rid of my position anyway (and also the people from AZ). They never re-hired for the role. - The whole company is a joke. They talk about all these benefits and seem to lay off before you can even qualify for them.
