Generous Bonus plan, Stingy on PTO, Lacks diversity, Good not Great place to work
For the most part, reward is equivalent to performance.
Motivated teams and a very fast-paced environment. If you can filter the noise, it is a good learning experience.
During regular day-to-day operations, I never felt any discrimination, but there are groups, more like cults, that don't like to collaborate.
Lacks diversity, and sometimes situations and decision making get too political.
The generous bonus plan that I mention equates to abandoning your personal life.
They could be a bit more generous with the stingy PTO policy, out of which roughly 4-5 are forced PTO days, which they call shutdown.
The only orientation or training that happened was with regards to HR policies and processes. Within most engineering teams, you are thrown in the pool and you learn to swim on your own.
Most managers are managers because they run out of engineering titles at some point. A lot of these people need to be taught people management and people retention skills.
Watch the crowding around the mid-management layer and try to diversify the workforce. A lot of your teams are out of balance in terms of workload distribution, and they need some serious evaluation of the managerial skills in most engineering organizations.
