Great Company, Great Product, High Turnover - Account Manager Tubular Labs Employee Review

Ambitious, impactful engineering projects. Engineering-first company led by engineers. Fair compensation. Great camaraderie between engineers.

High technical complexity. Engineers are expected to learn quickly and acquire both technical depth and breadth far beyond, say, pyspark programming all the way up and down the stack. Not a place for specialists.

Fun projects where I got to work with great people with brilliant minds and great enthusiasm. Enjoyed great growth opportunities in both technical skills and ownership and leadership. We had great benefits, and the culture was very fun, where people legitimately seemed to enjoy being part of Tubular. I came out of my time at Tubular as a far stronger engineer than when I joined, and I will always value my time here.

Having more headcount would have been nice. But the major con was that everything changed after the acquisition, with the mass layoffs and mass exodus of many people and leaders. It always seemed like Chartbeat and Tubular always struggled with how to be a combined company, and I think the combined org will continue to struggle. There was a significant decrease in morale, and it seemed like the morale only continued to continuously plummet over time with factors like the reduction of benefits, continued attrition, and uncertainty in direction. The culture I loved sadly withered away.
