Snyk

Benefits are nice, but it feels more like they just shaved a bit off the salary to pay for them.

The interview process does not reflect what you will be doing when you join at all.

Lack of direction internally, despite what you would think from external communication

• Multiple layoffs per year
• Deep hierarchy
• Zero accountability from leadership, and they just reshuffle problems annually to obfuscate them
• Layoffs that line up with vesting schedules as a cost cutting measure
• The worst on call rotas of any company that I have ever worked for

Listen to employees about the problems. Listen to the customer complaints and focus on those areas. Flatten the hierarchy to help communications lines.

In the AI era, SNYK should be something that AI Agents can use to catch vulnerabilities before they are pushed. It is not a tool to try to do the agents' job, and you will not win there.
