Pluspunten

Nice to work for a company with an established and generally admired brand. The current location of the office is good and perks like free lunch and generous snacks.

Minpunten

Mgmt represents SV arrogance at its finest. CEO surrounds himself with yes men (and I mean men) who are afraid to challenge him. Morale has been on a downward trajectory for at least a year leading to IPO. CEO and inner circle unilaterally make decisions, then scapegoat middle mgmt when their plans don't work out. Rumors of a ridiculous new comp plan, this on the heals of a bait & switch equity distribution. Oh BTW, there are no annual reviews or raises. Company brags about "paying above market and adjust when needed" but no one ever gets a raise. Avoid Roku, at least for now.

Pluspunten

-Pay is good to start (never changes though) -Benefits fully covered for single employees, mostly covered for spouse -Stock is currently up

Minpunten

People are miserable and actively hate each other. Very few people are happy (maybe some engineers?). The rest of us are tired and beat down from constant change, reorgs, and projects that go nowhere. Leadership isn't aligned. VPs scrabble for power. Direction changes. Projects get killed. The cycle repeats. The looks on faces you pass in the hallway say it all. Everyone I talk to is miserable and looking for another job. That may not be the case for all departments, but is certainly isn't an isolated experience. The company cares more about RTO swipes and AI logins than keeping good talent. And they track both weekly. If you fall below an arbitrary percentage (which you're unable to see for yourself) they have reasonable cause to fire you without severance. Which they do often. RTO is currently at 4 days a week and expected to go to 5 any day now. All for a culture of scrambling for conference rooms and sitting in traffic. Whatever you're hired to do, you won't be trusted to do it. If that sounds fun, this is your place! If you're actually good at your job, go somewhere you'll be valued.
