Fun but cult-like environment. Very entrenched middle management - Recensione dipendente - Engineering presso SailPoint Technologies

Silent layoffs are a frequent occurrence within the company. Career advancement is often determined more by personal likability than by genuine competence or merit. The culture is excessively rule-bound, where new ideas are perceived as threats to the established order, and rigid adherence to processes takes precedence over innovation, creativity, and meaningful change. The organization exhibits a cult-like environment, heavily fixated on surveys and reviews (literally instructing employees to write good reviews), particularly from new employees who may lack the broader context and understanding to provide informed feedback. Constructive disagreement is discouraged, and conformity is implicitly demanded. The company consistently prioritizes process over tangible results, creating an atmosphere where engineers feel apprehensive about voicing concerns regarding inefficiencies or systemic problems.
