Aira reviews

Terrible management. They don't listen to people and are slow to act, when they demand the impossible from their employees, time and time again. Company is trying to do too many things at the same time, instead of focusing on doing one thing right. Lack of technical leadership. CTO is a "commercial" CTO (whatever that means) that always sides with business part of things, putting insane amount of pressure on the tech part to deliver. Sub market compensation and benefits, plus no equity plan for employees. All in all, a high pressure startup with non of the startup upside for the employees.

I would not recommend working for this company. From top management is poor, disorganised, and lacks real leadership. There is a clear boys’ club atmosphere, where friends and family connections mean far more than actual talent or hard work. If you are not part of the inner circle, do not expect career progression, recognition, or support. Start-ups can be high-pressure but often come with the reward of growth and development—this is not one of those cases. Hard work is not valued, and there are little to no professional development opportunities. Instead, most promotions are handed out based on personal connections rather than merit. The company is burning through cash at an alarming rate, and instead of addressing the real issues, they are making cuts across the board. Staff are overworked, underappreciated, and subjected to unnecessary pressure from managers who have no real leadership skills. The culture is toxic, and the working atmosphere is unpleasant, with low morale and no real incentives to stay. If you are considering a role here, I would strongly advise weighing up other options.
