Showcase for other companies, especially outside of Brazil, and other big tech companies.

Toxic culture. They value the leader who berates their own employees in meetings, saying they didn't write something clearly or didn't bring a document to the meeting. They love asking questions that embarrass people and expose professionals, the type: "Why didn't you consider this in the plan?" Even knowing there's no turning back and the plan failed, which is common, by the way.

A 2-month project, you need to be in 7, especially if there's an "away team" (you working on other teams' code). There are no competitive benefits; the company refuses to offer the basics (example: gym pass). Now they are forcing employees to return to the office, even knowing there won't be enough space for everyone.

They do a "level down" on everyone in the selection process to offer low salaries and then look for the smallest flaw in performance reviews to tell you that you're not ready yet. If you are an L5, be surprised, L7s won't even talk to you, they won't address you, and if you message them on Slack, they ignore you.

There is an internal policy for transferring to other countries after 1.5 years at the company. In Brazil, they invented the 2-year rule because no one can stand it. When the deadline comes, people leave anyway.

The engineers think they are the best thing since sliced bread, all "stars," they don't accept criticism. There is no healthy environment for anyone (in case you're thinking of joining and shielding yourself with your team).

All people are fake and individualistic, especially because the annual performance process, which is also the only way to get a raise, values this: the individual above the collective.

Speaking of the performance process, managers are forced to always put someone from the team below the performance bar to have "severance fat." I'm waiting for the deadline to pass (2 years) so I don't have to return the signing bonus. After that, I will prioritize my health.

Tirem o complexo de superioridade da cabeça. Parem de se achar americanos, pois vocês não são.

Sigam as regras da matriz, mas usem as características do brasileiro, como a empatia, por exemplo.
