Good work/life balance, pace too slow for perfectionists - Software Engineer Stanford University Employee Review

Things operate on "Stanford" time; what would take days in the outside world can take weeks or months here Lack of transparency from upper management means lots of secrets and a perpetual feelings of unease Doing what's right for the org sometimes takes a backseat to not hurting someone's feelings; more damaging in the long run The department I work in has a policy that prevents working from home; tough for new parents Parking is tough in some parts of campus, plus you are required to purchase a parking permit
