Great attempt at good culture, ruined by high pressure on the team
The benefits are good. I liked my coworkers a lot, and the company really seems to be trying to do right.
The current manager of the Android team is not doing their part to keep product expectations in line. In the last six months I worked there, half the team quit after a huge project overflowed into day-to-day life at the company. Burnout is talked about, but no concessions are given. Even the "unlimited PTO" they offer comes with strings attached and disapproval on multiple fronts. I couldn't recover from burnout and left.
