Pros

flex time off & work from home days

Cons

- product is awful, many complaints, barely used by our customers - development is always rushed and bad decisions are willingly made just to make deadlines - managers care more about hitting superficial scrum metrics as opposed to real value add - inexperienced engineers in charge of large code bases - out dated technologies - pay bumps and bonuses have been delayed over and over again - literally no midyear or yearend reviews for employees since managers have no idea what their engineers are doing - all talk, lots of useless meetings, very few actual results, plenty of empty promises

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you’re having a tough time at Syapse after 5+ years as a dedicated team member. We wanted to update you that annual reviews for 2018 start on January 10, 2019 and we hope you take this opportunity to let your manager know about the challenges you are having. You’ll have the chance to learn all about this as we are hosting one of our popular lunch-and-learns next week to review our strategy and practices around all things performance related. We hope you are able to join us. Additionally, as a current employee, there are a number of support resources available to you and we encourage you to reach out to your manager or the People team to discuss the issues you’ve mentioned. We are very proud of the work we are doing with health systems and life science companies globally and know that delivering on the vision of precision medicine can be hard work. We hope you take the opportunity to reach out so we can work with you to make your experience at Syapse more rewarding.
