Disorganized, Incompetent RUN AWAY! - Software Engineer Linden Lab Employee Review

    1. 1.0

      Pros

      This company is so averse to constructive feedback and improvement you can do a bad job for years and get amazing performance reviews. You don't have to worry about building code that works under load or is secure. As long as you drink the cool aid and praise everyone for their "amazing" work.

      Cons

      HUGE backlogs of bugs and tech debt that will never be fixed. Out of touch management who know nothing about the platform. Product roadmaps change on the drop of a hat from upper level management. Constant outages and fire drills due to years of neglected infrastructure and applications. Association with toxic pornography / adult content that comprises most of the Second Life service.

          Pros

          The pay is pretty decent, benefits are good and they give annual raises

          Cons

          I filed a sexual harassment complaint, complete with photographic evidence of bruises. They found that no company policy had been violated. So I quit. Linden Lab pays a lot of lip service to being socially progressive, but responses like this are part of why women are so reluctant to come forward. Absolutely shameful.

        Recently I had an interview with Lowes Home Improvement and the interviewers came up wearing sweatshirts. I was professionally dressed up with the suit on. I found this weird. I have never had interviewers come up in sweatshirts during the interview. What do you think, about how to dress up when having an interview?

        A job interview is a meeting between 2 liars…

        Based on your experience, what preceded the job offer email: have you received that relatively fast, or you’ve been waiting in silence? For how long?
