Lots of hype and marketing; not a good place to be an engineer - Recensione dipendente - Software Engineer presso Jet

Disclaimer: your experience may vary depending on the team / group. The points below may be specific to my team: - Very product and marketing driven; engineering does not seem like a priority, just a tool for short-term use - The culture / direction above ends up resulting in a lot of short-term thinking on engineering: we rush things, don't take the proper time to test stuff, and it bites us in the future with bugs or poor code quality - Engineering leadership does not seem intent on addressing the above issues - No focus on following engineering best practices, having good documentation or being well organized; the priority is just to ship features quickly and fight fires (i.e. production issues) Issues likely relevant to everyone at Jet: - Product and brand seems directionless since acquisition, and we're now trying to pivot in a way that doesn't make sense - Executive leadership at Jet seems non-existent; no clear goals, no clear plans, no justification for the vague goals
