Welcome to hell
Welcome to hell
Relatively competitive salary, but they'll make sure to milk you for what they pay.
Micromanagement hell. You have to fill timesheets daily, where tasks cannot exceed 4 hours per task.
Then, you fill a weekly report on the work. Apart from regular daily standups, you have mid-sprint reviews and sprint demos.
EVERY sprint, you are overloaded by underestimating the tasks by design.
To top this off, you are made to do 24x7 on-call support WITHOUT extra pay and expected to complete sprint tasks.
Managers are the worst. It feels like they were hired from a set of construction contractors rather than software companies.
Also, the company is failing financially and cutting costs everywhere.
Bottom line: A failing company with no growth, where you are overworked and micromanaged with ZERO work-life balance.
