Awesome work and people, but tons of politics
Great, smart people to work with. Challenging work and projects.
Politics and "checking the box" on unimportant things and processes overshadowed the actual work to be done. The review process focused too much on politics rather than actual accomplishments.
The "new" review model still incorporates stack ranking, even though it is hidden from employees. Focus on accomplishments of the people, as opposed to those that play the political game.
