Pluspunten

Good Pay, above market rate for sure considering the lack of work you have to do. Good Benefits too

Minpunten

Reorgs - reorgs take place yearly - the current reorg has everyone reporting into the US - the management here in the US lack the expertise in local markets and it’s been apparent for months now but no one is doing anything about it - I’ve already seen 5 reorgs in 5 years. As well as this the US are travelling monthly to the UK which results in nothing accept a good dinner and social! Lack of innovation in product would suggest this is down to the fact the company has people who have been here for 10 years would suggest cutting these people first - every year in glint it’s highlighted the lack of career progression only the select few get promoted. The product hasn’t changed since 2005. So what have people done who have been at the company for 10 years? Re hires - too many rehires from eBay which everyone finds strange….

Pluspunten

Relaxing culture. family first. Stock performance is generally good for the recent two years and huge benefit if you're eligible for ESPP. Stable product with large customer base means you get opportunity to work on project with real impact.

Minpunten

1. Blind push for AI and leadership expect unrealistic efficiency improvement 2. Layoff every year in Feb (2024, 2025, 2026) and sometimes can feel the tension in team 3. Legacy tech stack with isolated and fragile infrastructure. Developer friction is a real pain. You get random infra down every once a while and internal support becomes even worse since they started offshoring to LCOL area in 2025. 4. Hiring freeze in San Jose... just expect more layoff coming up + frequent meetings at night / early morning across regions
