The org is big and still growing in revenue.
Skilled people from whom you can learn.
Great benefits and a budget for self-development.
The communication at the org level is great.
A good culture of trust and responsibility.
The cons are regarding the Mobile department, which is totally apart from the company.
The culture in Mobile is one of the worst I have ever experienced.
Managers and team leaders love and incentivize micromanagement on all levels. There is a feeling they are working against you, not with or for you.
One-to-one meetings end up being status report meetings.
The career plan is not clear at all. Even if you are playing a role two levels above yours, they will try to find small things to convince you and the managers above them not to promote you.
They love meetings. You don't have time to finish your tasks and learn new tech because there is always a meeting that you are required to attend.
A lot of great people are leaving due to all the cons above.
The Mobile department can make your life miserable, even in a great company like Zendesk.
Restructure mobile by replacing the managers and team leaders. Try to bring good leaders from other departments to make Zendesk culture happen.
Abolish the micro-management culture once and for all, and impose a trust relationship with the teams for the leaders.
Stop only collecting feedback and give voice to the teams. Do some action with their feedback.
