Pros

Good location, discount food, flexible work hours but depends your manager's micro management style, nice coffee machine and good environments but too open without any privacy and it is noisy and disturbing. Most people are nice but not all of them.

Cons

They are not exercising actual Agile, only hiring SM and PO as political cadres. Inside cadres, they play partisan. If you are looking for a long term position please avoid this revolting door. No engineering culture here. Be careful with those high rating reviews. Most are commented by new hires requested by HR. Believe me, none of them will make the same comments after a whole year.

Thank you for your review. We are always striving for continuous improvement as that is a core principle of Agile and the best way to run a high growth business. We intentionally aim to have scrum teams who want to work hard every day to learn from our experiences in order to be better next time. We feel this fosters an ideal environment for like minded Scrum Masters. In the role of a Scrum Master, there is not much more exciting than taking on a new challenge to improve the way the team and/or organization works and see the success that comes from such an improvement. We are anticipating many more of those successes in our BlueCat scrum family. You are absolutely correct that the People Team encourages authentic feedback - both positive and negative across multiple channels. Feel free to reach out to the BlueCat People Team if you would like to chat further about your experience.

Pros

Wellness days and flexible hours

Cons

This used to be a great place to work. It’s become toxic, especially for women. Female leaders and employees continue to disappear while external male hires are repeatedly prioritized over qualified internal candidates. Entire teams have been restructured in ways that disproportionately impacted women while men were promoted into those roles instead. HR is there to protect the company, not employees. Repeated complaints about the same people go nowhere, and concerns are routinely dismissed. Public humiliation, favoritism, retaliation, and demotions have become normalized. Long-tenured high performers are being pushed out and replaced by aggressive leadership styles that are destroying what was once a strong culture. If you value growth, support, or psychological safety, look elsewhere.
