Bottom 10% of worst places to work
Bottom 10% of worst places to work
Nice people.
Pay is decent but not worth the headache.
Pays for AWS certs.
Free O'reilly subscription.
Stack ranking encourages backstabbing between coworkers.
Management is forced to play favorites and hire people as PIP fodder to keep the employees they'd like to keep.
Constant reorgs. You join a team under one manager and a couple months later you have a completely new manager.
They will PIP you and later try to constantly rehire you as a contractor for less pay/benefits.
Lots of on-call makes for poor WLB, requiring you to work weekends and late nights.
Quarterly failover exercises are done after hours, so I hope you don't like sleeping.
Generous severance, but due to their incompetence, they will miscalculate. Once you think you are done with them, they will come knocking on your door.
Live the values and work on your core competencies.
