Great benefits, but lots of room for improvement
Great benefits, but lots of room for improvement
- Many smart, nice people.
- Company values are easy to get behind, and alignment is really good.
- Outstanding benefits, pay, and VTO.
- Tons of training available, with room for movement within the company.
- Lots of hard problems to solve.
Everything is centered around keeping Individual Contributors happy, but Managers & above do not get the same treatment.
Politics are awful among those wrangling for influence & looking to climb.
Top-down decisions are pushed onto managers and teams.
Too many meetings.
Unproductive build environment for thousands of engineers, and forced use of homegrown tools & technologies that are inferior to commercial & open source ones.
It's a HUGE company with different subcultures in different divisions; this just describes one.
- Treat your managers the way you treat ICs: grant them respect and autonomy.
- Keep working on removing bias from the hiring process.
