Nice campus; better get used to the view
Nice campus; better get used to the view
Nice gym, though crowded at times. Free coffee. Competitive, though not compelling, benefits. There are some interesting projects going on.
Sub-par management. Knee-jerk reactions are par for the course. Poor vision and leadership from executives. Work-life balance is poor for engineers, due to unreasonable schedules, management that doesn't fight for their employees, offshoring of key functions, and a sweatshop culture. Very inefficient development processes.
- Fight for your employees.
- Provide more vision instead of low-level decisions.
- Realize that your employees may have more important concerns outside of work.
- Support initiatives to gain efficiency; that's more important long term than delivering features.
