Pros

You will learn skills from all the extra work. Free meals when you go into the office. Plentiful parking.

Cons

Burnout culture, they don't care to fully staff teams so you will be overworked. Expect to work many nights and weekends and even holidays despite "flexible" hours. Remote or Hybrid but managers constantly threaten to force teams back into office full time Below average salary, almost nonexistent merit increases, no bonuses. 401k match is lowest I've seen in any company

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. It is always disappointing when someone has such a poor experience, as we take our culture and treatment of team members seriously. We offer a flexible workplace and have been vocal and candid about our commitment to a hybrid workplace. We believe our total rewards package is competitive, and we assess annually where we have opportunities to improve. Regarding merit, we have given increases annually, and our % allocations align with the tech market. We do have a pay-for-performance philosophy which we don't apologize for. So not all merit dollars are distributed equally. All the best in your next role.

Pros

Good remote working options are available

Cons

Direct leadership frequently used 1:1 meetings to discuss personal matters rather than tracking project timelines, yet would later blame subordinates when timelines slipped. It was an incredibly uncomfortable environment where it felt impossible to succeed. Good ideas would be implemented and well-received by others, but direct management would find something negative to focus on, like claiming it took too long Communication from direct management was passive-aggressive and often crossed professional boundaries. The language used in team settings was frequently inappropriate, including the use of highly offensive, derogatory language disguised as jokes. I was uncomfortable most of the time I worked there.
