Beware: going downhill very fast

Pros

Snacks, nice office, nice people

Cons

The company is going downhill, consider yourself warned. 3 rounds of layoffs in 2019 alone (about 30% of the total workforce). In addition, turnover is huge. People are leaving left and right. Very serious concerns of cash running out and the business model become obsolete.

Pros

Dogs, mediocre snacks, free lunch on thursdays, great teammates. Was good when I started over a year ago, but then...

Cons

It's actually impressive how much this company has declined since I started. It seems like management went in too many directions trying to do too many things, and now it's all fallen apart. In addition to the mismanagement, leadership does not care about you as an individual, as much as they say that they do. I was basically guilted and blamed for 2 weeks after giving my notice for not staying and doing more, even though I gave very clear reasoning as to why I was leaving (reasoning that was unrelated to the general decline of the company and more about my personal growth). But they don't want to hear it and they just talk you down to make you feel like a terrible person for abandoning ship. Now for the culture. My god. If you are an introvert, you will likely want to avoid this company. I'll give credit to having a lot of events, but feeling pressured to go to them and get 'fired up' about everything is just the worst. Crush it call is so culty, anytime I explain it to non-SN people they just give me confused and concerned looks. At this point, it's management's way of exuding positivity while ignoring the real problems that are going on. Also, this is NOT a tech company! If you're considering joining SN because they say they're a tech company, think again. It's a company that has succeeded by selling snacks and should probably stick to doing that and that only because that's what has actually worked in the past. But I heard they just laid off almost the entire sales team, so not exactly sure what's going to happen... If the recent negative reviews aren't enough to get you to turn away, I'm not sure how else to help you. Also, note the the influx of good reviews in september and how random they are, I'm sure one of the team leaders asked newer unknowing employees to write good reviews... if they were sales reps, they've been laid off by now.

Pros

Smart people used to work here, so you'll have great contacts in the LA area to leverage as you get a new job. #connections #networking #everyoneleft

Cons

Three mass layoffs in 2019. Over 100 person turnover THIS year. Mind you, less than 150 people worked here at the start of 2019. Luckily, most people left on their own terms because this company is so evidently nose-diving before the board's eyes. No job security, no growth potential, an environment that is built on judgement, sub-par work, and doom is in sight. Not to mention, you're surrounded by under-qualified coworkers. But, hey, Sean Kelly/ Andy Mack/ Chelsie Lee? You get what you pay for, right? P.S. I would have mentioned Ryan Schneider (former COO/ President), but he recently quit and moved away out of embarrassment. P.P.S. Did I mention that this failing company made the Inc. 500 list 2019? As I mentioned, you get what you pay for.
