      Great startup company with fun office culture, environment and the people in the office are great, but like all startups this comes at a risky cost...

      Inconvénients

      Consider your options carefully before considering employment here. Superscript has demonstrated fiscal irresponsibility, squandering investor funds to maintain the appearance of a fun and trendy workplace, albeit at the expense of investor money. Despite portraying a facade of financial stability to employees and investing substantial amounts in company events, the reality is starkly different. The company's burn rate was four times higher than it should have been, leading to a significant workforce reduction as mandated by investors seeking cost-cutting measures. While the people within the organization are commendable, the lack of responsibility exhibited by the senior management team towards their employees renders job security at Superscript a risky proposition. Despite the positive aspects of the workplace culture, the financial decisions and subsequent impact on job stability warrant serious consideration before committing to employment with this company.

      Thank you for taking the time to leave a review about Superscript. We’re happy to hear your feedback that Superscript is a dynamic and engaging workplace with great people. We note the concerns you’ve raised about transparency and fiscal responsibility. We make a big effort to foster a culture of transparency from top to bottom, which manifests itself in the form of weekly company all-hands, Q&As with the leadership team and regular engagement surveys. We value your feedback on this and recognise there is more to do in this regard. As with many startups and scale-ups, we are partly funded by investors and work closely with them. We take job security very seriously, like many companies we restructured the business recently to re-focus on our big priorities and put us in a better position to capitalise on future opportunities. This is part of the natural evolution of a scale-up at our current stage of growth, with aspirations to be a leading global SME insurance provider. We encourage you to reach out to a member of the ExCo or a member of the People Team to discuss your concerns in more detail. All feedback is imperative to ensuring that we remain a dynamic workplace with its people at the forefront of our company. All the best, Liv

      I held off on posting a review while the company went through some big changes, but things still aren’t great for regular employees. Heads-up if you’re thinking about working here: - The CEO, CFO, and a co-founder all got replaced recently, which shook things up a lot. - The company’s staying alive on investor cash and has about a year to start making money. - They just laid off around 15 people in another round of cuts. - No pay raises, but they expect you to keep stepping up your game. - The new CEO’s all about business and not so much about people. If you ask questions, you might get told to just quit if you’re not happy. - Diversity’s taken a hit. More than half of the people let go were PoC, even though they’re a smaller part of the company. The execs say they care about diversity, but you wouldn’t know it looking at the team. - Morale’s super low, and people are leaving left and right. They try to be open, but get defensive when you ask stuff. - It’s a high-stress vibe, and they’ve cut most of the fun social stuff. It’s not got the startup energy or the cash and stability of a big company.
