It is hard to listen or adapt to something that isn't said or shared openly but we appreciate the honesty of the post. Mirriaders enjoy a weekly Town Hall where we discuss our vision and plans to scale to be the company we know we can be. We can submit questions to our CEO and CFO in full confidentiality in advance of the meeting and no question, however uncomfortable, is left untackled. We are working to create a transparent meritocracy where we can bring our whole selves to work. We celebrate our successes and admit our faults and we learn from feedback when shared. No job tenure is wasted in the journey of a career - we all build on experiences, both positive and negative, to take us forward. You will always find somewhere that pays a higher salary or that fits more closely with your ways of working and we wish anyone leaving all the best and are thankful for the time spent working with us.

A wonder it's still going

Pros

Perceived to be an innovative player so looks good when showing mates. Some really good people there, who are slowly being reduced to shadows.

Cons

Under the hood, it is an entirely manual creative process, with a completely fictitious message that it utilises AI. The only technology is based on 10-year-old tech, Moka, which you can buy anywhere. Everything else is a large group of cheap labour in India doing all the work manually, from analysing the content (they don't use the AI stuff because they don't want to and because it doesn't work properly) and they don't have that much volume anyway, through to the actual delivery which is done using Adobe tools and again lots of hard graft by a team in India. Their message to investors and the market at large is just fiction. All the 'success' the new management has had to date was just things coming in from before their time. Tencent was long in the making due to needing custom development and came through despite new management, not because of it. All the new initiatives have resulted in zero results and the consultants they've brought in have generated zero results. Also great to see everyone getting a 3% pay increase, except for the senior management like the CFO patting himself on the back with a 15% increase for not quite having spent all the cash in the bank while not making any money. I could keep going but glad I've moved on from this disaster story now.

Thank-you for taking the time to give us a review. We run an anonymous survey to garner employee feedback and this quarter there were some negative comments, quite understandably, but also many good ones and some serious uplift in positive responses for the new management and structure. One of the things we had to do was to address some pay issues where people had initially joined us at lower than market rate for various reasons. It was important that the people we needed to keep stayed with us as we continue to grow. Our India office team do work extremely hard as you say but AI is definitely front and centre for us - we are in the process of adding more people into that team as the Mirriad tech is the beating heart of our business. As they say, you can't please all the people all of the time. I hope whilst you were with us you gained some experience you hadn't had previously - even if that was learning to deal with working in an environment you didn't enjoy. Mirriad prides itself on hiring great people and you will have been one of them! Thanks for everything you put in during your time with us. We wish you all the best

Pros

I have been working in Mirriad for less than a year and what stands out from the start is the team spirit within the company. Everyone is really helpful to assist you even the Senior Management team. Office is really nice with a big kitchen/dining space where people socialize. I am constantly learning new things and being challenged The company has an amazing product and it is on the right track to grow

Cons

As per many start-up companies it can get stressful during times
