Zoom Work Experiences
- 5.0Great Company Doing Great WorkMachine Learning Engineer • Current EmployeeMarch 18, 2021Pros: Opportunity to work on a platform that is vitally important to millions of people on a daily basis. Solid base. Good equity package. Amazing parental leave!!! Just got upped to 16 weeks. Tons of fridge benefits: * $200 yearly to spend on the company store * $300 reimbursement for food and exercise equipment during the pandemicCons: In engineering, many teams are split between the US and China, which can lead to late meetings and different work styles. In many respects, the company still has a startup vibe. It seems they are just now starting to solidify many HR and enterprise functions. This also means there isn’t a very well-set engineering culture (but many very smart people in engineering doing great things). No 401k match.
