Applied Intuition

Honestly, after a year, I can't think of any. Some teammates here are amazing, though.

If you are a new grad, don't join unless you don't care about compensation. Applied doesn't have levels, so you don't get the salary bump. You'll get much better compensation anywhere else. Equity is not worth anything after Series E (not much upside).

Toxic management. Having everyone arrive at the office at 8 am when there's a customer visit just to impress customers. You will not have time for interviews even if you want to leave because of the strictly enforced in-person policy.

Encourage feedback but take no action on the feedback. People who give feedback are also sometimes given negative reviews because they "do not focus on execution."

Very sketchy tech. Things break before demos, and many things are not implemented in the proper way.

Treat employees better.

Don't screw people over and stop lying.
