Average - Recensione dipendente - Software Engineer presso Zephyr (CA)

Nice atmosphere to work around

Did not have any problems

Intelligent co workers, agile departments.

Ever since the company was bought out in 2016 and the new CEO came in, the company has been going nowhere but down hill. We moved to a shared office space in San Jose and they took away our office snacks. The executive team is mostly located in our satellite office out-of-state, and the executive team located there has no clue as to Bay Area tech company culture and how to run companies here. Since the new regime, there has been an exodus of talent, and only remnants remain of what was once a decent company to work for. If you discuss and agree to something with the out-of-state executive team, be sure to get it in writing, because they will screw you over on every chance that they get. So much for "value our employees, as they are our most valuable asset." The out-of-state exec team are micro managers and want constant status updates instead of allowing employees to be professionals and do the jobs they were hired for. Productivity killer, incompetent project management skills, and a general lack of care for the employees.
