Good growth and culture. Solid compensation. - Recensione dipendente - Software Engineer presso Cedar

People here are truly smart and kind, very mission driven vibe. Managers care about your growth. Pretty cutting edge in terms of agentic tooling and AI use, but also overall mindful. Work is interesting and validating.

Struggles with product market fit, Epic headwind is real.

Incredibly talented, smart people. Mission driven work. High ownership environment- good place to stretch quickly

Cedar has strong talent and an important mission, but ongoing strategic changes and leadership inconsistency make it a difficult place to do sustained, high quality work Company direction is extremely uncertain and shifts frequently (about every 6 months), which makes it hard to see initiatives through . These shifts often happen without clear follow through or measurable outcomes Leadership alignment appears inconsistent - which leads to constant reprioritization and confusion on what actually matters Decision making is slow and often unclear from leadership, causing unnecessary swirl rather than forward progress Attrition is a problem right now with most roles not being backfilled. Also several silent layoffs have happened recently which has negatively impacted morale and trust. Leadership still expects high performance, but is doing nothing to address morale or to incentivize sustained performance Favoritism is rampant in some departments, affecting visibility and promotion outcomes - performance alone does not always drive advancement making it feel non-meritocratic Significant executive turnover over the past 1.5 years, which contributes to the broader sense of instability. I would ask about this if I were interviewing at cedar
