Great work-life balance - Software Engineer Data Republic Employee Review

Lots of freedom to create and own process.

Too many meetings and fluctuating leadership.

- Low pressure environment. Hours aren't crazy long. - Some great people - Central location - Slightly above market rates for most jobs

- Very top-heavy. Lots of chiefs and few indians. Many chiefs come from years in the corporate world. - Mostly funded by retail banks and the like and that brings with it a certain mentality that is often at odds with the nature of a startup. Banks aren't known for their innovation it shows in a lot of what goes on. - There is no real consensus on what the product is and as a consequence there is a lot of activity shooting in often conflicting or unknown directions. - No real culture. Seem to be good at selling one of the many visions to candidates but very quickly most realise it is not what it said on the label. - Lots and lots of meetings that have no discernible purpose and pretty much go nowhere. If you like meetings, this is the place for you.
