Great Team, Terrible Management
Great Team, Terrible Management
Interesting problems and working with great people on the team. Great PTO and work-life balance.
Absolute lack of transparency from upper management. Care for people and team health is sad. I have seen a higher than expected number of engineers "ambush fired". Inequities between organizations on pay and promotion rates exist.
