Great engineers, horrible management
Great engineers, horrible management
Incredible engineers, some of the smartest people out there.
Benefits are top-notch.
Management in AR pillar is bad.
Horrible work-life balance.
Extremely high expectations from senior ICs, plus very little support.
Mixed messaging from management, huge pivots every 3 months on average, a lot of bureaucracy, and insufficient tooling.
"Impact culture" and "ownership" are handled in a way that makes collaboration much harder than it needs to be.
They are clearly managing people out at this point.
Rethink impact culture. Collaboration is paramount, and making it harder than it needs to be is a very bad idea.
Show kindness. I've never felt less valued than I did at this job.
