Good Culture, Manager Turnover
Good Culture, Manager Turnover
Yahoo is one of the best companies to work with, given its values, the talent base, perks, etc. Over the years, I have seen a lot of good things happening.
The first thing that attracted me was the culture – people were so friendly and healthy. In the early days, the managers were so good and motivating.
Then, there have been ups and downs like any other company. As a company, it is progressing well. The latest strategies, the latest innovation plans, and strategies are quite encouraging and motivating.
There have been downs as well. I have had, on average, 2 managers per year, and many things are tied to your manager. Thus, this is a big minus.
From my perspective, salary is the biggest con. Opportunities are sometimes not equally given to all; this is again a drawback. So, career growth takes a toll at times (for some).
