Vantaggi

Remote work (although they will soon be moving to hybrid model soon)

Svantaggi

- Most managers hired in the last year are not technically skilled, which results in a lot of architectural mistakes. - Developers are expected to start work on projects that are not even clearly defined and since managers are not skilled its difficult to make them understand why HLD and LLD is important. - Due to poor planning products are mediocre at best - Due to poor planning and constant changes in products developers are expected to work for long hours and make the changes overnight

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.
