Avantages

I'd skip this if it were optional. Anyways, just to lighten the mood. The company went from MicroStrategy has good Management to Strategy has good MicroManagement They removed "Micro" from the company's name and added to the management while rebranding.

Inconvénients

- Employees are expected to be seated before start time and stay at their desks without breaks until the end of the day. Leaving early is discouraged, but staying excessively long is normalised, and some even work 18 hours straight on some days. - Leadership culture is demoralising. Senior management frequently belittles employees, emphasises replaceability, exaggerates the forty thousand resumes they have, and yet it is hard for them to find candidates for hiring, as they had to conduct walk-in interviews for the Chennai office, creating a fear-driven environment. - Hiring and growth appear strongly influenced by favouritism. A non-technical VP handles interviews and often focuses on his own personal achievements rather than candidate skills. - Minimal focus on product quality or employee development. Learning opportunities and career progression are nearly nonexistent. - Public criticism and shaming are common, creating a psychologically unsafe workplace. - Employees have been encouraged to post coordinated praise about leadership on LinkedIn, which feels performative rather than genuine.

You will learn ALOT here and if you can stomach the culture you can get promoted quickly or move teams with little friction. Above market rate benefits that start Day 1 Generally speaking good camaraderie amongst the worker ranks I’ve held multiple roles and have appreciated the opportunities to travel internationally which was life changing The product has a little bit of a learning curve but it genuinely is something special once it’s up and running I felt that towards the end of my tenure my pay was exemplary although I really had to earn it

Inconvénients

Wowwwww where to begin… Well it’s a top down organisation but also a market laggard. Given our position relative to our competitors this regime of leadership is responsible for missing the moment in Cloud, BI and AI. Middle management and upper management alike don’t have a clue and it’s definitely a soap opera of leadership and empire or cult building. Not a great feeling of purpose when everything you do internally as well as with customers is overshadowed by Bitcoin. Dwindling customer base. We’re really only making money by replacing ironically technologies older than us (Cognos,BOBJ) or moving existing customers to our managed cloud The community is totally dead especially internationally. Minimal on the ground experts at strategy and a very loose and underfunded partner program Product conceptually is great but struggles to differentiate from hyperscalers and modern cloud data platforms on value. Leadership can definitely get a little preachy touting merits or metrics that are pretty vain in the big picture Specifically in the last 3 years gaslighting has been the norm for management. Everything here feels performative and doing your best to do your work without upstaging or upsetting your manager. The RSU distribution definitely feels like serfdom. The employees at the bottom get a single digit or if you’re a heretic you get double digit number of RSUs, but it definitely does not seem fair that the benefits of the Bitcoin strategy rolled to the top, at least when the asset is up
