Disappointed in a company I truly loved being apart of

Pros

- Remote First Company - Unlimited PTO - Really awesome product - No micromanaging (for the most part)

Cons

- Internal Politics - It almost seems too easy for leadership to fire people. You make more than one mistake (despite being a consistent top performer) and they will take that mistake to the grave and use it as a reason to fire you. - They have all these policies in place, yet go against them all the time

Horrible Experience!

Pros

Absolutely nothing positive to say about this company.

Cons

The company has a management team that lacks experience. They treat their people with little to no respect. They have no trust in who they hire and are very self centered and opinionated. They lied about my role in order to recruit me from a well established company and all they did was lie to me. They laid off 25% of the company 3 weeks after I was hired. They made my experience terrifying and they are not an honest company. They also spoke poorly of me after I decided that I could no longer endure the poor treatment from my management team (Including while I was employed there). The executive team is a flop and they do not take kindness seriously. I would not recommend this company to anyone who has previous experience in any way shape or form. If you want to be babysat, get a pay cut or told to regress to a different profession or be miserable everyday, then this company is perfect for you. Run like the wind! Don't get suckered into this awful place!

Pros

Free Catered Lunch on Mondays Cool Office Space and Location Police Officer Customers are Great Travel Opportunities if that's your thing

Cons

The reality is that the company hired people on the false pretense that the C-Level executives at the helm have been successful in founding other companies. That's a lie. So beware of that sales pitch. The company then pressured their employees who were tricked to work for them to vote Flock as one of Atlanta's Best Places to Work, and then fired 25% of the staff within mere days after. One person that was fired had only been there for 3 weeks. One person had just gotten a promotion the day prior. On one team, they fired every single minority. On top of that restructuring, leadership has changed the job descriptions and roles of nearly every employee without them being part of that conversation. They have cut their pay. They expect their employees to fund the company's travel on their personal credit cards to the tunes of $1000s of dollars and be okay with being reimbursed 1 week later. They do not compensate according to industry standards (e.g. do not pay for sales leads). They changed the commission plan 3x within 3 months. Leaders micro-manage and babysit your every move, focusing on activity and not strategic results. But it doesn't really even matter because even your top employee can't do what they're asking for - to grow the company by 700% in 1 year! Quotas are numbers that are so impossible, they're like imaginary numbers. If you want to truly experience what a toxic work environment looks like, come join the Flock!!
