Being a woman in tech, I only recently started advocating for myself at work about advancement opportunities. Because of this I wanted to ask this question to my male counterparts. When you have 1:1's with your direct reports and talk about career growth / aspirations what is your managers’ response typically? I’d like to gauge how my experience (negative) differs from others. For instance are you met with blockades, enthusiasm, dread, etc?

Interviewing for a security assurance analyst position with Twilio and some of the stuff I’ve been reading makes me nervous. Any Twilio people here that can speak to overall company culture and work/life balance?

Change that Makes Sense

Pros
New leadership changes make sense and bring more clarity to the enterprise software vision and market positioning. Matt Mills has brought his Oracle experience but not the legendary Oracle nastiness we were all so fearful of. MapR is no longer a start up and the transition to a more structured organization can be painful, however, MapR is handling it well. All the bumps in the road are normal and the overall goal is clear. Really bright, hardworking people in all departments.
Cons
The new leadership changes have resulted in attrition and we have lost some terrific people. With more people working remotely there is a big need for better internal communication tools. We are all drowning in email! Benefits should be more generous and include additional valley perks.

Good tech, mediocre culture

Pros
Best Hadoop platform on the market. Experienced leadership (for the most part). Well-funded. No additional pros I can think of.
Cons
Not many people care about their value prop. Corrosive culture, particularly in Engineering. Little upward mobility. Benefits are meh. Constant outflow of talent, being replaced by mediocre clueless people from Oracle

Have you ever done interview & just felt the team or company wasn’t sitting well with your gut? How does that factor into your decision if an offer is made? Obv a job interview time is limited so you never know but sometimes I just have a vibe it’s not a match and even though I may keep going in rounds, I’m always checking if I finally get the gut feeling this may be right. I had one where round 1-4 the mood was off. I felt I was being nitpicked harshly always, they rejected me in the end

For those who are/were in management- At how many years of experience did you get your first job as a manager? How did you make the jump into leadership? For people whose first management role started at a new company, how did you convince them since you had no prior experience in management??
