BigCommerce reviews

- It's clear most of the recruiting/HR team is writing the glowing reviews, about how the company is one of the "Top|Great|Best places to work" however what they don't tell you is you the entire company is spammed by the people team for participation in these surveys for better press - When they first opened the office they lured everyone w/ the whole "we plan on IPO'ing" schpiel. Years later and this is far from a reality AFAIK - FAKE CULTURE!! When you're in an office that doesn't want this and you're trying to force it on everyone it's clear you're doing something wrong. - Some higher-up's only have their title to show off their 'worth' but in reality want nothing to do with the team that they are assigned to direct/manage. - Working intra-office is horrible, especially when "the OG's" act like they don't have to respond to you - PR comes from no-named sources no one knows of. - Benefits aren't as great as some others have said.

- lack of direction - favoritism in engineering leadership: need to be part of the clique in order to get more responsibility or team size - fake culture that promotes a "work family" even though they let people go for no reason without giving them the time to collect their things or say bye to their friends - developer output is measured by number of PRs committed which can be gamed
