Vantaggi
I work on the Infrastructure platoon at LiveRamp. We are one of five groups that make up Engineering. I am very happy here for a number of reasons: 1. No politics - Decisions are made quickly and based on technical and business reasons. 2. Transparency - Everyone's opinions are on the table and you don't have to guess around their motivations. 3. Organization - The company is operated as a separate business unit from Acxiom and we do what's best for our own product delivery with full support from the mothership. It's how every acquisition should be structured. 4. Teammates - Everyone works hard and wants to do the right thing. When we hire, we pay a lot of attention to cultural and personality fit. 5. Nature of work - We get to play with giant Hadoop clusters and design/deploy the latest technologies like K8s in the course of solving our business problems. I wanted to work at LiveRamp because it's a sweet spot for me. A startup at heart that remains independent with the financial backing of an enterprise.
Svantaggi
It takes a significant amount of time to hire because we look for the needle in the haystack. This means roles are left unfilled for long periods of time.
