Avantages

This was my creative outlet. The work is problem solving by nature.

Inconvénients

I’m so confused where to even begin. It felt a little like a socialist system where they tell you all good things when in reality things are pretty terrible. I had top ratings and was loving my job. We hear all the news of tons of volume to come and how the company is doing amazing. I received an email out of the blue saying they had “over-hired” and therefore needed to let some people go and gave a 2 week termination notice. The notice was appreciated because many colleagues before me were laid off with no notice at all - however they can’t explain why. Just that they are a “start-up” who made bad hiring decisions? It’s a terrible excuse. Why in the world would you hire a few hundred people to pay off 3/4 of them within 3 to 6 months??? They simply do not care about you. I know you think I’m just mad because I’m losing my job - but honestly I hope this review makes someone stop and think before investing themselves. They organized this 2020 Modsy Meet Up where all the remote workers could get together to socialize.... Everyone was invited and encouraged to go. Many people from out of state bought plane tickets and made travel plans. 2 weeks before the event they cancelled it and said “oh we didn’t realize we couldn’t afford this”. Are those the kind of people you want to entrust your income with?
