Such a waste - toxic from the very top down

Pros

Hired some great people - always willing to collaborate and achieve. Chance to try out new things.

Cons

Said people were squashed at pretty much every turn. Owner puts people under immense pressure with an unclear, ever changing ‘strategy' (aka JTBD lists, which contradict what’s just been done). The whole business operates in constant panic mode. Staff treated appallingly, despite solid HR efforts to change culture. Pattern of recycling the entire marketing team every year or so. In my time there, all but one of the exec team left. 20% of the company let go in 2021. Then, less than a year later, they want to hire 150 people. Makes little sense. None of this is a coincidence. It comes from the very top.

Pros

Since starting at XSellco a few months before the Covid pandemic, I would have expected an up and down experience working here since then working here. I have to say that the experience has actually been Up and Up the entire time. The company have been nothing short of amazing with the support, benefits and facilities provided to us since having to work from home in March. This has been outlined by our CEO and put into place by the great People & Engagement team. XSellco has a great community and you are really made to feel like a valued employee week in week out. It's easy to speak to anyone throughout the company, collaborate across different teams and locations and work towards a common goal together. It's a really exciting team to work at XSellco and the opportunities and chances given to progress and to learn have been endless so far.

Cons

I'm not able to think of any at time time.

Pros

Generous gifts and hampers, good people in the trenches with you. World class design lead, pitty he’s so poorly supported by the rest of the business.

Cons

High staff turnover, too much focus on sales, not enough focus on product, which leads to massive customer churn when they realise it’s all smokes and mirrors. Huge technical debt incurred over years of mismanagement and poor strategic vision
