Eze Software Reviews

Cons

No bonus or moving stipend

Cons

Chicago R&D office was closed.

Cons

Too many changes for the company.

Cons

- Lots on instability due to closing offices, spinning up an India office, and a recent sale to a larger fintech company
- Management has not done a great job steering the ship and overall feels bloated. There was a troubling trend of scrum masters, project managers, and executive managers being hired at the expense of developer hiring. This had a measurable impact on the company's ability to deliver software. Regardless of grand ideas coming from the top, a company needs developers to build software.
- Like so many other software companies, they preach agile and scrum but in reality practice a bastardized version because they are unwilling give up standard waterfall practices
- Management constantly moved goal posts and was way too eager to roll out broad sweeping changes on a whim. This left teams feeling off balance and severely handicapped velocity

Cons

Work Life Balance nonexistent, client base is a nightmare to work with (verbally abusive, hostile, etc), career path becomes a dead end after a few years, transferrable skills gained are few, senior management is ludicrously out of touch with reality and therefore terrible decisions are routine and goals are impossible to hit. Raises are designed to roughly keep pace with inflation unless you can get promoted which is entirely tenure based unless you either are terrible at your job or a rock star (like bottom 10% or top 5% of the company and then maybe you'll get promoted 6 months late/ahead of schedule). They will claim this tenure schedule doesn't exist but just ask everyone who gets promoted when they started at Eze and you realize promotions are every 18-24 months for the junior/mid/senior individual contributor jobs.

Cons

no work/life balance,
management got no chill,
perform every day or get out with surprise evictions

Cons

Repetitive work, but that was just part or it.

Cons

All the positive reviews are from management and HR to pump up their glassdoor rating.

If you’re considering this place please run and run as fast as you can. Director level management provides no transparency and will straight lie to your face. Pay is below the market average and there is no bonus. There is no such thing as work life balance as the sales team oversells products to clients that they don’t need or can’t accommodate so you are stuck trying to put out fires all day and driving meaningless work that the client will end up cancelling.

The bottom line is that they under pay, there’s no opportunity for growth or work life balance and no transparency from management. All reasons to AVOID. If you’re interested in fintech, there are plenty of other companies that will provide better opportunities.

Cons

Little transparency from upper management about changes that involve us; frat bro culture in some departments to varying degrees; few women employees in technical roles, nearly negligible in technical leadership roles; culture is not as lax or "perk" heavy as start ups, probably due to financial nature of product

Cons

Recent sale has translated to a lot of uncertainty, low morale and not much in the way of bonuses and promotions. High turnover rate. Not very innovative for workplace technology.
