GoDaddy Senior Software Engineer reviews

owner sold out, all of the things that made good company to work for started disappearing, a lot of people who worked there for a long time really got screwed in many ways. Along came the investors, and it was all about the numbers game. Many products where cancelled, people were secretly either forced out "you have 30 days to find a new job" or let go. Their main goal was do it under the covers and they made employees sign documents saying they would not discuss any of this, or would not get any severance. They then started hiring younger folks, willing to work more hours for less. The new building has things like a skate park, slides, and go karts, so take a guess what age range they are targeting for that ??

* This company seems to have lost its respect for the people who built it. * Ever since new management has come in, benefits have been getting worse and worse. * New hires are getting way more stock options and better pay then most of the engineers who have been here for years. * Management favors employees that then brought with them from other companies, treating everyone else pretty much like crap. This is causing experienced engineers who have been at the company 5+ years to quit. * Management seems hell bent on changing technology stacks all over the company without a real clear vision with what they want to replace it with.
