Seems great, at first… - Anonymous employee WP Engine Employee Review

- Did extremely little to help employees during Covid, despite the company both saving money on office expenses and regularly hitting sales goals - The company talks a big game on DEI, but beyond simply maintaining a non-discriminatory workplace, it's mostly performative - ERGs and related DEI action is mainly driven by employees, not the company - Managers and department leaders are extremely hit and miss; some are amazing, some only make themselves look good and throw their reports under the bus or even block their career progression to keep reports where they want them - HR is more interested in maintaining the absence of conflict than actually doing the right thing - The hiring/interviewing process is both biased and very long - They'll use your geographic location to justify paying you less - Review process is extremely slanted -- "we expect people to exceed expectations" is one of many ridiculous excuses I heard for avoiding giving people a raise or promotion - Their referral process is toxic and annoying; they encourage employees to spam social media for a chance to earn money from a clicked link, rather than fostering a culture where employees refer people who they actually know and trust
