- High profile products
- Interesting tech and customer experience problems to solve
- Nice office and equipment (laptop, standing desk, snacks)
- Good salary and signing bonus
- Poor work-life balance outweighs all pros.
- Big on-call load.
- Lots of panic and release-blocking bugs with no time to fix.
- No time to attend workshops, conferences, or play sessions.
- Bad stock vesting schedule, no raises before the two-year policy, and a bad 401k match.
- Incredible social pressure from management created an unhealthy work environment.
- Only code business logic in Java; no database or frontend UI work, no time, or opportunity to build other skills.
- Management lacks empathy. Incredible social pressure created an unhealthy work environment. Please see your employees as humans and not expendable workers. No goodbyes or thank yous from skip-levels upon resignation.
