Red Flags Everywhere - Recensione dipendente - Senior Software Engineer presso Kiddom

I enjoyed my time here, built cool things, learned a lot, worked with some very smart people. Did some good in the world. Still refer good people to them and plan to continue doing so.

Here are six words of cons.

The company genuinely seems to value work–life balance, and many of the people I worked with were thoughtful and committed to the mission. Teams care about improving the product, and there is a constant effort to refine processes and user experience. While this sometimes creates friction, it also reflects a desire to keep moving things forward.

Experiences may vary depending on team and manager. In my case, there were times when performance expectations felt somewhat unclear. Feedback throughout the year suggested progress, but promotion and compensation outcomes did not always align with that feedback. Salary growth and promotion timelines can also feel slow, which may be frustrating for some employees. There were occasionally communication gaps between teams, which sometimes made collaboration or prioritization more difficult. Additionally, the company has experimented with new technologies and tools over time, and guidelines around their use were not always consistent early on.
