Vantaggi

The internship was very hands-on, not observational. I worked on production-grade code and owned deliverables that actually shipped. Mentorship was strong—my manager and senior engineers were approachable and invested time in code reviews, architecture discussions, and career guidance. The intern-to-FTE conversion process was transparent. Expectations were clearly set early, and feedback was shared regularly, which made the conversion feel fair and earned. Good exposure to real-world scale problems and modern tech stack. Culture encourages asking questions and learning fast rather than expecting perfection.

Svantaggi

The pace can be intense, especially during product deadlines, which may feel overwhelming for fresh graduates. Documentation across teams could be improved to help new joiners ramp up faster. Cross-team dependencies sometimes slow down execution.

Vantaggi

None currently. Used to be the best place to work.

Svantaggi

The company has changed dramatically over the last few years. Morale is at an all-time low, and most people are disengaged and unhappy but willing to stick it out because they pay well. The culture that once made this organization special has been eroded and replaced by an environment driven by fear and uncertainty. Leadership decisions have contributed significantly to this decline. Since the arrival of a new executive leader (another CEO??), Kathy, there has been a noticeable shift toward centralized control, diminished trust, and the appointment of loyalists into key leadership positions despite concerns about whether they possess the necessary experience or qualifications (spoiler: they don’t). Many long-tenured, high-performing employees have left or been pushed out as a result. Sort the reviews by most recent. You will quickly notice a recent influx of positivity from the India team. It’s no coincidence that the (original) CEO just visited. Clearly the priority is to improve ratings rather than address the underlying issues driving the demise of what once was an incredible culture.
