      Too much restructuring

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Fully remote work with interesting projects

      Cons

      Too many layoffs and too much chasing the "shiny object"; including specific people allowing for a very dysfunctional workplace where talent isn't rewarded but favoritism is.

      Company with good mission and poor execution by leaders and employee experience

      Pros

      Company has a solid mission of bringing economic opportunities to freelancers all over the world.

      Cons

      Leadership is all over the place with setting and executing against goals. Employees thrown in situation without and context and having to "figure it out". Career path unclear and comps underwhelming compared to competitors.
