An interesting review on Glassdoor from an ex employee. I know people don't usually go out of their way to sites like this and write about the great things about their employer though having worked for a somewhat polarising employer myself in the past and the reviews that company got on Glassdoor, there's no smoke without fire...
"A great start that did not transform"
Former Employee - Anonymous Employee
Doesn't Recommend
Negative Outlook
Disapproves of CEO
I worked at Devialet full-time
Pros
Was an amazing start-up with true vision and ambition; it gave many people exposure, responsibilities and experience that would have taken many more years to acquire in other environments.
Cons
Scaling up has proved to be fatal in many respects (people, values, ambition), and little is left of the original dream. Textbook early success has been followed by textbook failure to grow sustainably and true to the original idea
Advice to Management
This small company has become political and paralysed. Invest in team, break silos, and discourage or remove toxic behaviour. Most importantly, inspire and lead by example
