      The performance can never be judged by a faulty metric calculation system

      Senior support engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The Company culture when i joined was world-class. The Remote policy is great. Compensation and benefits are second to none. The Parent leave policy is gold.

      Cons

      The Performance metrics are pure mess An engineer who gets easy cases is rewarded and engineer who works on actual complex issues is penalized

      Great people, but slow pace and frustrating execution

      Senior software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Genuinely kind and supportive teammates — low ego environment Strong emphasis on work-life balance (almost too much at times) Flexible remote culture; easy to manage personal life Decent pay and benefits, especially for a non-FAANG company Engineering standards are decent — code reviews and documentation are taken seriously

      Cons

      Execution is painfully slow — too many meetings, too much alignment, not enough shipping Consensus-driven culture means even small decisions take forever Promotions feel opaque and sometimes political despite the “no politics” claim A lot of “process over impact” — writing docs is often valued more than delivering results Legacy systems + internal tooling can be frustrating to work with Innovation is limited — many teams are in maintenance mode rather than building new things Hard to stand out — performance differentiation is weak, high performers not strongly rewarded Feels very “comfortable,” which can lead to career stagnation if you’re not proactive
