Great place with a lot of pressure
Great place with a lot of pressure
- Amazing scale of the projects: your audience is a significant percentage of the entire world population.
- Smart people around.
- Excellent perks and support. If you need a thing to make you productive, just name it and you get it.
- Excellent software development infrastructure.
-
Performance assessment is focused on immediate impact. Longer-term projects and code health activities are rewarded less.
-
High pressure to succeed. The place is very demanding, and the perf procedure feels merciless at times. Prepare to demonstrate your usefulness, or be dumped.
-
Frequent reorganizations and project transfers between offices. Your project may be moved to California at any time at the discretion of senior management.
-
The London office is still a secondary one: most core business is done in Menlo Park.
