Thank you for the feedback! Being mindful of people's preferred pronouns and gender identity is an important part of embracing a culture of inclusivity and belonging. I'm glad that was meaningful to you. I'm sorry you felt our approach to other areas of the business was challenging. We try to have a clear framework and guidelines that we trust and empower managers to work within. If there are specific areas that we dropped the ball on that led to ambiguity for you, please share those with us. I'd love to try to add clarity and improve the experience where we can.

Vantaggi

- lots of ownership - decent middle management - great teammates - learning a lot - older employees do tend to have competitive RSU grants and salaries

Svantaggi

- tons of legacy systems (10+ years version of Ruby on Rails... 10+ years since some products or services were updated, 0 associated automation to help) - last 2y of leadership has brought on tons of reorgs & changes. Example - recommended PTO days quietly went down, got rid of lots of free snacks, anniversary gifts went down $100s of dollars, plenty of silent layoffs - Senior leadership is focused on 1 thing - getting the stock price up. Has no interest in supporting some of our legacy systems that can prop up new products. - new hires are not fitting into our culture. Inflated titles. Empire building. Awarded for submitting buggy AI Slop code. Encourage working on the weekends. Starting to get toxic.
