Good work life balance, but the company does not feel on a very solid state
Good work life balance, but the company does not feel on a very solid state
Recharge day about every month (optional free day). Realistic goal expectations. Unlimited PTO. Talented peers. Cool and interesting projects. Company trusts a lot on engineers (work setup is not too obtrusive).
The stock has been tanking, it seems it is having a hard time and prosperity is expected, but in reality it's hard to envision where it will be in a year.
I feel the company is still on the stage where it goes from being a startup to being a real "needs to be profitable" company. Engineering very detach from product, sometimes we need to (almost blindly) decide which project will be more profitable
Stronger product division is needed, I believe every team should have close constant contact with product.
