Oct 21, 2022 - Software Development Engineer In Test (SDET)RecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros

Cons

- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Remote work Flexibility Decent benefits
Cons
Terribly run organization. A lot of big egos at the management level without any self awareness. The founders have no experience being leaders and are running the culture and work environment into the ground. Extremely immature behavior exhibited in meetings where yelling at people is accepted and being disagreeable is rewarded. As long as the founders are running the show especially in the non tech departments this company has very little hope of being successful.

Moving in correct direction
Aug 7, 2020 - Software Engineer in San Francisco, CARecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
- Good engineering team - Hard work gets recognized quickly - Navigating through COVID-19 really well; which validates resilient business - Supportive management - Acknowledging mistake and moving in the right direction quickly
Cons
Recently there were few layoffs; mostly in sales due to COVID-19 related impact. Initially, I was very upset about it. But then looking around, I realized it was a necessary action. It was probably a little harsher but it's very hard to estimate the impact of something like COVID-19; which is a once in a decade event. Company is doing much better than I initially though it would do in these times.
