Remote Work, Bad Management
Software Engineer • Current Employee
Oshawa, Ontario, Canada
November 18, 2023
Pros: Good benefits. It is a fully remote company.
Cons: Most managers are terrible at Yelp. A lot of inexperienced managers were hired in recent years with no idea how to lead. Total chaos and lack of vision and direction from them.
Work-life balance is almost non-existent in some teams. Compensation was reduced in an environment where everything is getting more expensive.
A stupid leveling system just takes away from engineers' productivity and puts unnecessary pressure on them.
Lack of transparency is a company-wide culture.
