Laid Back, But Stuck
Laid Back, But Stuck
Very laidback. Great place for those who look for work-life balance.
-
The company doesn’t innovate anymore.
-
It missed its opportunity to become a cloud service provider like AWS, Azure, etc., about 10 years ago.
-
Now, it has a hard time keeping up with Cloudflare, etc.
-
Below industry average compensation.
-
Dead-end jobs with no career advancement within the company.
-
RSUs were only awarded once every two years (rumor was that “yes men” got them every year).
-
The CEO had done a good job flatlining the stock for a decade.
-
An OK place to work if you are retiring in a few years.
