Pros

At least everyone's all smiles and super friendly, but they'll drop the ax on you in a heartbeat.

Cons

Let me tell you about my experience with Plexxis Software. It's a company that seems to dangle a slightly above-average salary in front of you to lure you in, only to have you do some minor tasks and then give you the boot during the probation period. It's not your typical software company; it feels more like an assembly line, with managers constantly peering over your shoulder. They've got this sneaky way of keeping tabs on you – they pretend to stroll down the hallway or fetch coffee, but their eyes are always glued to your screen. And forget about taking a breather during work hours. You're expected to plaster on a fake smile and make sure you're always on your manager's good side. Any excuse will do to show you the door during probation. If you're holding an offer from Plexxis right now, consider yourself lucky to stumble upon this post. My advice? Approach this company with extreme caution, and take everything they say with a grain of salt. Those glowing reviews you see? I wouldn't put much stock in them. Just look at how many thumbs up the negative reviews get – that tells you the real story of what it's like to work at Plexxis.

Thank you for sharing these comments. We genuinely regret that your experience at Plexxis did not meet your expectations. Critical feedback is valuable as it generates internal discussion aimed at improving all aspects of the work environment. With respect to new employees on probation, we appreciate that Plexxis standards are extraordinarily high. For this reason in particular, our approach is to take the required time to teach, challenge, guide and support individuals with a shared aspiration of meeting or exceeding those standards. It is unfortunate that you view all this effort being directed at nothing more than seeking an excuse to “show them then the door”. We trust you might agree that such a strategy is counter-intuitive and an enormous waste of everyone’s valuable time. You made a number of remarks “framed” as positives but clearly, these further reflect your negative impression of our team members, and, with such impressions being entirely personal, our comments in this forum would be rather pointless. Our best recommendation for candidates interested in pursuing a successful and fulfilling career at Plexxis, is to make their own determination by asking to meet any number of Plexxis members [at any level] during the hiring process. We’re confident that candidates will not find a single “fake smile”, rather, a wide cross section of determined, honest, talented and genuine folks who are more than happy to share their personal experiences – all aimed at ensuring a perfect fit for the Plexxis culture. In fact, we encourage every candidate to judge for themselves and will provide every opportunity for a healthy and positive exchange. Finally – We understand that “perception is reality” and in this respect, we will continue to aim at always doing better, particularly when provided with genuine constructive criticism.

Pros

I learned my worth. Life is too short to work somewhere like this. A high staff turnover rate (over 20%) at least means you get to meet a lot of amazing people. Just don't expect to work with them for very long.

Cons

During my time working here, Plexxis management took down their Indeed page to start their online reputation over again from scratch. Staff were directed to leave positive reviews, so please take anything positive on this page with a grain of salt. Staff are treated poorly and as if they are disposable, no matter how long their tenure or loyalty to the company. As a woman, I didn't feel safe or comfortable with many of leaderships comments or actions. I faced disparaging comments from management of all genders, not just men. Staff are grossly underpaid. The wage I was offered was absolutely insulting, but because they "offer" unlimited overtime, I was told that I could make more money just by working longer. I felt expected to work 60-80 hour weeks without weekends or leisure time. If I ever left the office at 5:30 (when end time is 5), leadership notices and often would make comments to me like "oh you're heading out early!". There is extreme pressure from management to denounce any work-life balance. There are beds in people's offices, and many people sleep at the office. The implication is "your whole life should be work". SOME EMPLOYEES ACTUALLY LIVE IN THEIR OFFICE, and do not have a house nor mailing address elsewhere. Zero career opportunities or company mobility. It felt like to me, leadership was very insecure that if people had growth opportunities and improved their talents, they would move on to better opportunities. I felt kneecapped and stifled consistently. Don't bother with a performance review, you'll never get any feedback. I had to ask for two years straight... and never had one, and I feel like they evade this review to avoid bringing compensation up to your performance level. Leadership dogmatically preaches a set of "core values" that they put on huge plexiglass signs and install everywhere throughout the office-- they're literally basic human decencies I expect out of any human being, such as being open and honest. It seemed these core values were only for staff to follow. Every day felt subject to a new set of double standards and as though leadership was exempt from following their own "set of values". Leadership is very cowardly with firing, and does so via email or during work hours, forcing people to leave with their entire office contents before EOD and before anyone can speak with said former employee. When I quit, I was asked not to tell anyone and no announcement was made to the other staff. I was told that mentioning I was leaving would affect morale, but really I don't think they wanted their staff to get any ideas that they could depart too. As with many others who had a similar experience, most employees learned I had quit after I didn't show up to work 4 days in a row and received messages asking me if I was okay. On a similar note, there are no exit interviews. I, along with many others who have since left, had a lot of criticism which could have been constructive, but as you can see with this review this environment did not feel conducive to being received well, if at all.

Pros

Some of the most amazing team member's I have ever had the pleasure to work with. They have a great office space with several accommodations for their employees, including a on site gym and games area.

Cons

Management is terrible, they treat their employees like disposable commodities. There is no area for advancement or growth, most positions do not have a career path. There is no management provided and you will not be given any performance reviews from your manager but negative performance will be used against you if they feel the need. The company is struggling and unless you are willing to play the game with management, you will be a pawn for the duration of your employment there.
