Poor Leadership, Grossly Low Compensation
Poor Leadership, Grossly Low Compensation
Kind, helpful colleagues Work-life balance International colleagues
Poor management. No career ladder. Too much politics with the leads. Not enough opportunities inside the company. Poor leadership — leadership doesn’t understand the users or the tech job market. Low morale — people overall are passively or actively looking to switch companies. So, if you have just joined, you’ll find your teammates leaving in some months.
Understand the user better. Provide incentives for people to perform. Avoid silos (PM culture inside actively act as information silos). Increase compensation for everyone (trivago salaries are overwhelmingly low).
