Great benefits and supportive teams, but work pressure varies
Great benefits and supportive teams, but work pressure varies
There are good benefits, including food, cabs, health insurance, and sports facilities. There are multiple teams, and you can change your teams and location. There are good people and managers.
The work pressure is sometimes more, but it depends on the team. There were recent layoffs and stricter performance tracking. The salary and stock refreshes are low compared to industry peers.
Don't destroy the good work culture—which focused on trust, knowledge, and respect—and replace it with an Amazon-like hustle culture.
