Sprinting head first towards a cliff - Recensione dipendente - Software Engineer presso Anaplan

New owners are changing all of the things I just mentioned. Much of the compensation was in company shares which are no longer tradeable, and the 'replacement' scheme is laughable. There have been several rounds of layoffs, budget freezes, and cost cutting measures. These aren't bad by definition, but it comes at the cost of many of the soft benefits we enjoyed as employees. Many of the highest performers have left, and there's been no suggestion they will be replaced, leaving more junior members of staff struggling under the workload. Management seems to think it's a good idea to pit individuals against each other for bonuses in an all-or-nothing deal, which far from the competitive attitude I assume they were going for, creates a bitter and miserable environment. There has been near 0 communication to the company at large around the direction or the changes or the layoffs or what can be expected in the future. Morale has been at an all time low for 6 months, yet keeps getting lower every day. This has been brought up to the CEO in all hands calls and the best response he seemed to have was to suggest they will require people come into the office more? It is apparent that Thoma Bravo bought Anaplan to make short term changes that will increase company value and sell it off for a profit, leaving the chump who bought it off them with a company that is a shell of its former self, absolutely crippled by tech debt and 0 company loyalty amongst the staff.
