Terrible personal experience
Terrible personal experience
Compensation and benefits are just ok. I like the product the company is working on; there are lots of smart people doing great work. The stock has been rising with the AI frenzy, which benefits all employees a little. The European part and the sites in San Diego and Wilton seem to be well managed.
The San Jose site is not well managed. People get promoted to manager not for management skills, but for the length of stay in the company or guanxi.
A tall hierarchy and small groups with only two or three people make work very inefficient. Managers in general don't know how to motivate or protect their employees, but just try to get them overloaded to make the upper managers happy.
The culture here is also getting closer to a Chinese company that values hustling and working overtime since the previous site director left.
The San Jose site should really be more structured. Some people managers with good management skills are needed. A more reasonable project plan, which everyone can finish without working at 10 PM, should be developed from top to bottom.
