Upgrade Reviews

Whenever I bring up my concerns to management I get the same generic answer about this being a "startup culture" or "growing pains" or "scaling problems" There are many startup companies that hire and retain experienced employees all while promoting a healthy workplace. No one will admit that finding and keeping experienced employees is the main problem at Upgrade. Leadership is awful at best and turnover rates are much much higher than average. - CEO has a history of defrauding investors. Read about it here - https://www.sec.gov/news/press-release/2018-223 - Harassment is allowed and a great tool to meet our unrealistic numbers. Shaming, blaming and singling out employees from their team are all allowed. This is the very definition of a hostel workplace. - Over the years leadership keeps getting younger and less experienced as the company grows. This is a good indicator of how messed up things have become at Upgrade. People with experience won't stay long, or will avoid this company altogether, leaving the young and ignorant to lead the way.

This place is horrible and not somewhere to start a career, but only to receive a paycheck. There’s so much to say but all I can say is all the negative reviews on here about unrealistic goals, poor and inexperienced management and people being fired/quitting because of it, is true. All of the positive reviews are obviously written by management. It’s obvious, each negative review is followed by a positive one almost instantly. Quitting this place was the best decision I’ve made. I don’t even like to mention I ever worked here, it’s a shame the way they treat their employees. I don’t see this business being open longer than a year from today. Do yourself a favor and DONT work here, don’t let the perks drag you in. You can do better.
