3.0
Used to have a great culture
Software Engineer • Current Employee
Newton, Massachusetts, United States
January 20, 2015
Pros: Coworkers are very intelligent.
Flexible work schedule.
Standard perks: beer and wine at happy hour, foosball table and video games, food all the time.
About to move into a giant new headquarters.
Cons: Engineering culture has become very fragmented. In the years since I started, the social community has faded, and it's harder to connect with engineers outside of your team.
It's harder than it should be to switch teams, and hard to figure out how to advance your career.
