Good job, not a lot of upward mobility, plenty of work-life balance
Software Development Engineer • Former Employee
May 9, 2025
Pros: Worked at EG for a year and a half. It was a good learning experience, and generally the people working here don't have huge egos and are kind. The office in Seattle is extremely nice, benefits are good, and pay is decent.
Cons: The company feels generally mismanaged, with lots of turnover in senior and VP level leadership, plenty of red tape to deal with, and not very innovative technology. It can be an incredibly frustrating place to work sometimes. If you want to work fewer hours and get a decent salary, this is a good place. But there's plenty of red tape, not a lot of upward career mobility, and the company doesn't seem well managed.
