Worst employer out there
Software Engineer • Current Employee
South San Francisco, California, United States
January 19, 2025
Pros: Remote eligible for some L2 and L3+ levels.
Cons: It's kind of like Amazon/Meta and other companies who let go 10-15% of employees every year. Their compensation is not as good as other tech companies anymore after they reduced it a couple of years back.
