Great Pay, Troubling Metrics
Great Pay, Troubling Metrics
Remote, had decent WLB at one point, amazing pay relative to most of the industry. Mostly nice culture.
Work-life balance has gotten worse. Metrics like PR count and lines of code are now being used as data points to evaluate work performance. Management uses this data to help make decisions on who to bump down to scores of 1s and 2s during performance review season, when we're graded on a 1-5 scale. Stack ranking is used, and whenever too many managers give too many high numbers, they go through the process of 'calibration' where they meet up and figure out who to bump up, down, etc.
Try to keep your nice culture.
