Vantaggi
I had the opportunity to work with some incredibly talented and supportive individuals on the junior and middle-level teams. They were collaborative, helpful, and truly the best part of my experience at the company.
Svantaggi
During my time at the company, I faced several challenges that impacted my professional growth.
Upper management regularly contacted employees late at night, on weekends, and even during approved vacations, showing a clear disregard for boundaries. Working hours were excessive, often starting around 8–9 AM and stretching into late evenings, with little consideration for work-life balance.
Task planning was chaotic. Everything was labeled urgent, and we were often expected to handle multiple sprint cycles simultaneously, leading to confusion, inefficiency, and burnout.
Recognition for good performance was minimal. Feedback focused primarily on what needed improvement, rarely acknowledging effort or success.
More troubling was the internal culture survey, where employees were encouraged to submit only positive responses for the "Great Place to Work" certification—an obvious attempt to manipulate public perception rather than address internal issues.
The People and Culture (HR) team enforced rigid, overly controlling policies that created a demoralizing environment. Many employees felt micromanaged and mistrusted, which only worsened morale.
While the company may choose to respond defensively to this review, those who’ve experienced the culture firsthand will understand the reality. Defending themselves will not change the reality that there is no one to listen to the genuine concerns employees face. HR may acknowledge the problems, but they don’t take meaningful action to address them. The truth about the company’s culture is well known internally, and no external response can erase that.
