Extremely political
Extremely political
Product is genuinely impressive, recruitment is good and most of the people at the company are fabulous to work with. Compensation is pretty good. Socials and Xmas party are always well organised and fun.
Project selection and work allocation is not well communicated ahead of time by senior leadership. Workload is a common issue. Most teams are drowning in work but some have it way worse than others. Release cycles are chaos, code freezes ignored, bugs/breaks common. Genuinely dreaded working during the month of release.
Performance isnt based solely on performance, internal politics and in-groups are rife. Ideas can be considered or ignored based on who presents them.
Tech debt and office politics need addressing.
