Working with driven, responsive, and smart coworkers.

Great software development process with minimal headache.

Excellent compensation and benefits.

Reorgs happen a lot. I was shifted to a new manager five months into the job, and similar things happened to many of my friends in different organizations.

This is painful because your manager is the one advocating for your promotions.

This was particularly challenging in my case because my new manager was controlling and quite rude at times. We provided feedback as a team to our skip-level manager, but after 6 months, it's fallen on deaf ears.

All of my other team members have changed teams or left the company. I'm about to follow suit.

It's sad because I like a lot of my coworkers. I just get the impression management genuinely does not care about us.

Also, diversity here is abysmal. There are hardly any URMs or women in engineering, and I was shocked when I first started.

If an entire team provides feedback that a manager is not behaving appropriately, please listen.
