Good Learning, Bad Managers
Senior Software Engineer • Former Employee
London, England, United Kingdom
May 29, 2024
Pros: If you get a good manager, it's a great place to work. There's lots to learn about engineering and product.
Cons: - There are a number of not-so-great mid-level managers that can mess up your entire experience.
If you're considering joining, ensure you ask about the team culture and style of management.
- Stay away from 'Regional Teams' for your own sanity.
- Compensation is poor. Promotions are hard to get if you're not a noisemaker or sycophant.
