Getting worse every year
Getting worse every year
Nice work-life balance, no need to work on weekends.
Working at Zopa as a software engineer has been disappointing. Growth is driven by office politics and friendships with managers rather than merit. Technical achievements are overlooked, while noisy, repetitive contributions are rewarded.
Most of the work involves bug fixing, troubleshooting, endless meetings, and reading unrelated Slack threads, leaving little time for development. Salaries aren’t competitive, and the engineering leadership lacks vision, creating a demotivating environment.
