Pluspunten
- Fully remote (unless you're in Poland) - A few very decent middle managers who are still optimistic about where it's all going - Great products with a lot of potential, which is currently being wasted because of the AI fluff - Farming lessons during All-Hands calls. Totally unrelated to anything the company does, but you'll love the speaker's passion
Minpunten
1. Have you heard about micromanagement? Welcome to nanomanagement. Every move will be questioned and reviewed. They call it "attention to detail." Be it a developer or an SEO manager, they both will have to justify their actions and decisions. And not to their direct manager, but to a CEO who can (and will) pop up in the chat or in their inbox. Zero trust in anyone's expertise; there's only one expert. 2. Because of the zero-trust approach (IYKYK) described above, nepotism is thriving. That's why you will find a whole bunch of people in management with zero idea of cybersecurity. 3. No one is allowed to raise concerns. Those who are too slow to understand it lose their jobs in the blink of an eye. Check the web archive of the Leadership page on the Netwrix website to see how many C-level execs left the company within the last year. I dare you. You will be surprised. LinkedIn will not help because those who managed to stay for only several months have removed this disgraceful experience from their profiles. It's not any better for the middle managers. 4. Due to #3, middle management lies to their executives so they can lie to the CEO. Imagine, the team was tasked to automate smth with AI by the next sprint. Director will tell his VP that it was done even though it wasn't. VP will know it's not true, but he will pass the message to the C-level because no one wants the truth about why this automation is totally irrelevant. 5. Anyone who is not an American is perceived as an idiot by default. Being a native English speaker doesn't help. Leaving the company was the greatest relief that I've ever experienced in my life.
