Shutterfly reviews

- If you live in SF, like I do, the commute can be miserable

--There are MORE mediocre, very new (unskilled), or checked out engineers than talented (there has been a serious brain drain and management doesn't seem to care to retain good talent) --The CFO has put in ridiculous policies (and doesn't seem to respect others...especially if you are a woman) He is a joke. --The new CEO doesn't seem to get what makes (or made) the company great. Still too soon to tell if he will be good or not. --HR is embarrassing. They give out incorrect information and are generally incompetent --There are more managers than engineers. There are meetings packed through out the day with no one to actually do the work. --The business doesn't have the gumption to make tough decisions. Product doesn't speak with tech when making roadmap decisions. Game changing tech work is cancelled to add more home decor products (because it will add 300K to the bottom line, but passing on investing in the code will cost far more in the long run) --The constant promise to reinvent and move forward and then shifting gears to stay the course EVERY SINGLE YEAR is super depressing. --Stock grants are slim to none. Most employees don't get grants after their initial offer. --Benefits have eroded over the years. Health insurance policy is not great, no (never has been) 401K match, forced PTO, and corporate laptops are aging and not refreshed very often.
