new management is not good with people

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Stock is doing tremendously well, Old timers are in for the stock. Rallying behind CEO Engineering expansion in Minneapolis Ops is best and most laidback team to work in

Cons

We lost an important team member from Minneapolis site due to mismanagement and false promises from management in San Francisco and lack of proper technical direction in the team. There is no real technical architect for few projects and one ends up building something no one wants to use. Management asks us to come to sf, but doesn’t send team members other way around. Micromanagement from site lead and manager.

Business Outlook

Pros

Business is flourishing Outstanding CEO and executives Great Place to work for non tech Used to be a promising place for engg till late last year. Customers love the product.

Cons

Expect to spend most of your time navigating lot of mid management politics where site lead with very poor technical knowledge runs the decision making along with her imports. There is a lot of fact wrangling which is common which leaves you constantly left demoralized. Few people work hard, but many teams like the SRE team get away with ballooned estimates and working less than 2 hours per day. Project which I was on was made based off reqs from one of biggest customer instead of taking in a more broader view and now is being reworked.
