Scale up: going corporate
Scale up: going corporate
- Decent compensation, pays above average.
- Interesting tech stack and investment in technology. Plenty of opportunity to learn and use the latest and greatest.
- Challenging domain with plenty of interesting problems to solve.
-
Getting very corporate lately and feels sluggish. Plenty of red tape.
-
Questionable decisions regarding people management recently. No transparency and honest communication in terms of C-level decisions.
-
No commitment to agile development anymore. Micro-waterfalls is now the model.
-
Micromanaging. Management will randomly pick things to solutionize on.
Trust in your people. They got you where you are, and treating them like children will not help anyone.
