Pluspunten

In-office perks are good. Colleagues (ICs) are friendly to work with.

Minpunten

Honestly, *really* terrible upper management across product and engineering. Poor decision making in launching new products: not waiting for data and constantly trying to go "all in" on shiny new projects that haven't proven themselves yet. The consequence is constant churn of engineering resources, a build-up of tech debt, poor WLB, and no good product to show for all of it. Additionally, upper leadership in engineering, instead of pushing back on product themselves and evaluating whether product initiatives make sense, shifts this accountability to ICs. Inefficient and doesn't make sense at all. Also, as part of this, performance evals have gotten stricter. Despite the public stance of no quotas for PIP, there actually are quotas during calibration discussions. Most engineering teams are underwater and unhappy.

Pluspunten

Compensation was strong and competitive. The people were genuinely good to work with, and on paper the mission is one you can get behind. Solid brand and a smart, capable workforce.

Minpunten

Leadership often felt political and opaque. Success was difficult to define clearly, and it frequently seemed like the business quietly picked winners and losers rather than rewarding performance on transparent terms.
