Over their heads

Pros

Remote work, good no, great coworkers that have each other's back as much as possible considering the mess we have to work with.

Cons

The 3 stars are for the CS/Tech teams, not management. The CEO always pushes for more more more yet gives less and less. He demands everyone give more than 40 hours a week, more than 9-5 but does not offer additional compensation. He sets unrealistic expectations and doesn't provide adequate support or encouragement. They laid off a bunch of really good and caring people leaving those that remain to struggle and suffer. The company has never been profitable and payroll runs behind frequently. Parts of the system are only partially functional, missing huge components that impact the end user's business. I can't believe their investors have been so patient.

Pros

There are simply no silver linings to be found, I would give 0 stars.

Cons

Working at Symplast has been a soul-crushing experience. The toxic culture here permeates every aspect of the workplace. Employees are treated as expendable resources, with management showing little to no regard for their well-being or contributions. There is a glaring lack of strategic direction, leaving employees feeling aimless and demotivated. Despite the company's lack of profitability, unrealistic expectations are continuously placed on employees, demanding miracles with no support or resources provided. Save yourself the anguish and look elsewhere for a company that values its employees and fosters a positive work environment.

Mismanagement

Pros

Remote work is great, debatable if that is enough of a reason to work at Symplast.

Cons

The company is very mismanaged. Management doesn't understand the day to day job, they fired crucial employees to save money and they don't understand why the jobs of those they fired are not getting done. They are oblivious to the needs of their employees. Work Life balance is frowned upon.
