Pros

The ESPP plan has a 2-year lock period and gave good returns over the past few years. The CEO is a very interesting and empathetic person.

Cons

Lack of management support, coupled with very high expectations, ruins WLB. Lower ICs are also expected to perform at the level of managers. Sometimes, they are very cruel in giving feedback.

Advice to Management

Please don't induce stress in employees.

Managers are taking every employee mistake as an opportunity to give negative feedback. There's no talk about positive contributions in focal conversations. It demotivates and discourages us from improving and doing our best work.

Managers lack empathy, and the CEO is very employee-friendly. So, managers are resorting to brutal ways to find faults and push people away from the company.
