Round and round in circles we go

Pros

Free food sometimes. There really aren't many pros, I'm slowly starting to realize. What i know so far is that this company suffocates the life out of everything. They squash any hope of talent. If you care about doing something real don't waste your time here

Cons

The project managers are a bunch of brown nosers to the owners, that's the only way they have power. They don't have real experience. Team leaders are all pretty amateur but have big egos for some reason? The company runs itself in the same circles day after day... You know how doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results is the definition of insanity? Yeah, welcome to Vixlet.

Pros

They reel you in with a fancy office, free lunches, and a hope that there is focus on building an actual product. Unfortunately this is all for show. Upper management just wants to sell, sell, sell above everything. This is the case, even if that means disregarding the product's state, team and its progress.

Cons

Company and product goals change almost daily according to who they're talking to. There is no focus or time given towards building the product first, but there is an insistent need to keep trying to sell (a product that they don't yet have.) Promises are made to brands by management and marketing, resulting in intense pressure for the teams and eventually disappointing outcomes for everyone. The company bends to whoever and whatever they can get, forcing the team to back peddle and make major changes within extremely short deadlines. Basically there is no backbone at all for the product. Vixlet is less a tech startup, and more like a circus promising to provide random services (even if they have to lie about it.)

Pros

In general, people, food and location are nice.

Cons

NO Direction, Wild Wild West, Lack of seeing the Bigger picture. Current Leadership has NO clue and leading with no experience is scary. Hope someone will realize it before its too late. Good ole boys club.
