Great people and benefits, but OKRs make work unnecessarily stressful
Cloud Software Engineer • Former Employee
Hillsboro, Oregon, United States
October 21, 2025
Pros: Flexible working hours, good hybrid and remote options, competitive salary, and excellent co-workers — smart and supportive.
Exposure to many technologies and strong benefits overall.
Cons: Company execution has been inconsistent lately, leading to missing bonuses.
The OKR system is frustrating — difficult to define meaningfully and heavily pushed from management.
It often turns into a paperwork exercise rather than something that supports real engineering productivity.
