Spiralling down fast - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Ticketer

Not too large, nice people, good working conditions (remote), decent benefits

Not many opportunities for progression internally either within your team or other teams.

Loyalty seems to be at the bottom of the priority list I am afraid, Throughout my time at Ticketer, one discretionary bonus was awarded around the end of my first calendar year. Was informed that there was no budget for it in subsequent years...
