A strong tech growth, but with endless overtimes, age discrimination, and poor management style
A strong tech growth, but with endless overtimes, age discrimination, and poor management style
Joined the team in 2019. In the first months, there was an excellent manager who did a great job. The technical team is perfect, and the tasks and challenges were great.
After some time, a new manager from Korea came to the team. He considered it normal to micromanage and discriminate against me by age, pointing this out at team meetings. He also expected us to work 12-13 hours a day, especially during a pandemic when the teams worked remotely.
Growth and other processes, like vacation approval, will also depend on the relationship with your manager.
After 20 months with Grab, I decided to leave the company and return to Europe.
Improve WLB & management style.
