No career development and no culture - Recensione dipendente - Tech Specialist presso Venmo

When starting at Venmo, it was a different company and the people interviewing were going off how the startup had been ran for years - flexible time off, daily lunch and snacks, fun working environment, and endless opportunities for career advancement. During my time there, the company was transitioning and adapted to a corporate model, take more and give less. Very soon after being hired, it was clear that there was no career development plans or mentorships. Being promoted within was almost impossible. Since the Chicago office transitioned into WFH, the little culture there was, dissolved. The senior managers, director, VP do nothing to aide the disconnect between departments and teams. There is very little cohesiveness between departments which causes friction and limited solutions for merchants and users.
