Not a good review

Pros

New and fancy office buildings to feed your eyes (not your tummies tho) With paid sabbatical after 4 years (if you can make it till the end) And 3 months (if you can get an approval from your lead) of mobilewiser - aka work from abroad policy

Cons

• Micromanagement is rampant, trust in employees is virtually nonexistent. • High turnover rates mean teams are constantly understaffed and overwhelmed. • Inexperienced leads and senior leads make ego-driven decisions rather than business-driven ones, which harms both morale and outcomes. • Salaries are far below market rates — I later discovered I could have earned nearly twice as much in a similar role at another tech company with similar perks. • Mental health is a checkbox on paper only in reality, support is absent. • Bullying from management is common, creating a toxic and unsafe work atmosphere making opportunities almost impossible to get.
