Zeta Global

Where does one begin when talking about a place that was so terrible? I have diagnosed PTSD from working at Zeta. Nothing I did was ever good enough. There was no company culture unless you count being talked down to culture. My typical days were unpredictable as I never knew what my managers would approve or if I'd have to start from scratch every day. I could submit the same thing 5 days in a row and 2 days it would be accepted and 3 days it would be wrong. Also, can you say micromanaging? The hardest part of the job was trying not to cry at my desk for 8 hours a day. The most enjoyable part of the job was when my manager didn't text me on the weekends. "Unlimited PTO" was "unlimited you're expected to work from wherever you're going". If I was offered $1 million dollars I still wouldn't step foot in that office. Give your employees respect instead of free bagels.

This company follows all the current hot technological buzzwords. Right now, it's AI, next year it'll probably be something else. They acquire companies that may or may not(usually not) a fit for what they want to do. They don't really have a way to address issues, any and all issues seemed to be ignored. They're corporate to the core. Employees are cold and uncaring. The compensation is not worth the stress and strife. No motivation to try to improve your skills, it's a definition of dead end.

Given my specific role and the leadership of the company, my experience was very bad. This said, I think it was my particular circumstance - they needed a different person in this role who was more inclined to follow a specific path than to bring their vision and concepts. My manager was amazing and did their best to protect me for as long as possible.

A great, but unstable place to work. Outsourced roles to cheaper labor to either overseas or Nashville, TN. I survived through 8-9 rounds of layoffs but did not survive the last. 

PROS: Great people to work with, a lot of challenges, unlimited PTO, "get the job done" mentality, some decent benefits

CONS: Unsure future of the Burlington office, no career advancement plans, leadership says the right things but does the exact opposite, bottom-line is more important than employees, the "old" platform is outdated but does everything great while the "new" platform is not scalable to enterprise clients

I liked what I did. Checked in, did troubleshooting, status meetings, documentation, requirement gathering.
Did not learn much which was not a good thing.
I liked my immediate Manager and left when he was laid off because I did not care for the way the rest of Management treated employees.
There was no effort made to reward people who were working hard. Hardest part of the job was dealing with poor Management. I liked doing my work, completing my deliverables, I had no complaints about that.

It was a decent place to work while it lasted. Our business was bought out by Zeta and at the time they had already bought a few other companies. Slowly but surely our teams got smaller and layoffs inevitably happened from downsizing and off shoring work. I don't blame the business decision, I'm just more weary of future places I work at that may do this. 13+ years of working with good people just came to and end.

Difficult to understand the entire business and culture. Lots of acquired tech that needs consolidated, many divided groups and structure.  Some smart and good people within, okay benefits, but in the end the business is focused more on numbers and data than your personal career or efforts.   

I have learned a ton and have to thank the people who work there that have helped me learn this coding career.
Management - seems to care but their hands seem tied at some point.
The hardest part is the last-minute changes or short time frames.
The most enjoyable part of the job is the unlimited PTO.

They fill a spot in the marketplace, but not a great place if you want to learn, grow, or be challenged.  Pay is very low, compared to other companies in similar spaces.  Legacy products take a while to learn, are buggy and unreliable. 

The unit that I work for was acquired by Zeta in December of 2015.  I think that Zeta has tried hard to fulfill the promises it made at the time of the acquisition.  In general I think that Zeta is a company that tries hard to have a good working culture.
