Pros: Turing provides a good work-life balance.

Cons: I have not found anything yet.

Pros: - Work from home if you're an engineer - Salary is a bit higher than local rates if you're from a third-world country - If you're looking for a short-term gig and some experience working remotely, maybe this is the company for you :)

Cons: - Disorganized, executives aren't informed of each other's decisions, engineers receiving direct orders from these conflicting decisions get penalized - You're urged to give a positive review on Turing at Glassdoor so you can receive bonus scores on your performance review. (You’ll send your review to a high-ranking manager so he can record this.) How can you give honest reviews on Glassdoor if you're being graded on your reviews, right? (As of this writing, I have obviously left) In their ads, they tell you they'll connect you with a Silicon Valley company but that's actually them -- they'll be hiring you directly instead to build their platform. I've stayed here for 6 months but I never got connected to another company - Not US rate (but you can earn well if you're from a 3rd-world country) - I never had a contract even when I've asked a couple of times, as I've agreed to work full-time - A high-ranking manager I've directly worked with tend to always be rude, there are ways to give feedback without being too rude but he seems unaware of that. Cultural differences, perhaps you'd do well here if you treat your "superior" like a "superior being" and you just follow orders. - No QA team -- you'll be doing QA on your own - No sprint planning, no clear separation of concerns but you take all the blame for mistakes and missed deadlines - No proper code review process. Sure you make a pull request, but the code review isn't deemed too necessary. They don't even use a linter. They're perfectly fine with poorly written, poorly formatted code as long as you meet their deadlines. Most of the people I've worked with here don't seem to have good command over the English language, even though the company advertises that their pre-vetted engineers first undergo a "rigorous" English test -- I did ask about this test (I never had it) but I didn't get a reply on this issue. An engineering manager doesn't speak nor write well in English either, it's often difficult to communicate with him and if you don't understand what he's saying he'll assume you're stupid and not that he actually has problems communicating Not a company you'd work for in the long-term. Remember that it's a startup, they can fire you anytime they want. There's no contract, no benefits, etc. You'll have to trust that they'll pay you (but you have no contract so you’ll really just have to "trust" that they'll pay you, and yes, they do pay you but it can get delayed for up to 2 weeks) - If you're looking for job security, this isn't the company for you - If you're looking for a company that won't treat you like an expendable resource, this isn't the company for you - It encourages a culture of being a "suck-up", you'd feel like you need to be a politician to excel here, the environment is also conducive for politics, you just have to be more visible to everyone, package and market yourself to the company, be congenial so you get reviews from different people and receive bonuses

Pros: It was easy to join the company network.

Cons: It takes a long time to get a job
