Pros
- Remote (but this is up in the air as upper management is throwing hints are RTO) - Compensation was fair up until the end when Procore got way more stingy with stock refreshers
Cons
- What happened to the culture? The three O's? Literally directors and VPs and such don't show them at all. The chaos in the upper management seeps down to the IC level. So much politics and backstabbing. High performers getting laid off or being ignored for not playing politics. - Work/life balance became an absolute horror show especially with the mass hiring of engineers in India. Procore expects people to work their normal hour day PLUS working horrible off-hours (5:30am, or 11pm at night) to collaborate and manage the India team. Likewise for any India engineers working with US engineers. Pick a lane Procore. Either you want us working U.S. hours which means we can live our normal lives. Or you want us working closer to India hours. But do NOT ask for both. - Fears of layoffs results in low morale. And silent layoffs happening so it doesn't trigger the WARN act. Management won't even acknowledge the layoffs. - Constant re-orgs leaving projects up in the air. Within a one year period, there was about one re-org every quarter. You have to fight like tooth and nail to try to keep the projects alive. How can you expect anything to get done when projects live and die before getting it to production? It's all in the name of "alignment" but that depends on what the flavor of the month is. And that constantly changes. - It literally took Procore having major stability issues to finally focus on the tech debt that causes customers so much pain. Listen to your engineers when they raise alarm bells before systems go down. Procore literally waits until the house is on fire before fixing issues. Engineering is a very reactive org rather than proactive org. It's hurting the customers in so many ways. New features won't solve the unreliability of the systems. - Perks are slowly being taken away
