Vantaggi
- Smart, motivated engineers who care about doing good work - Interesting technical problems and meaningful product goals
Svantaggi
- Management culture can be inconsistent and anxiety-producing - Feedback often skews toward criticism without sufficient positive reinforcement - Limited psychological safety, especially for senior or staff-level engineers - Family-friendly policies are not always supported in practice - While family leave was described as supported during recruiting, taking parental leave later felt implicitly penalized in practice. - Leadership behavior sometimes included micromanagement and public call-outs, which contributed to a lack of psychological safety. - In my experience, termination decisions could be made abruptly at senior leadership levels without clear communication or alignment with direct managers.
