- No profit sharing, equity grants on hire or after 1 year. They will allow you to buy stock, though the company isn't public and so there's no obvious way of cashing that out.
-Contractor pay is very poor.
- If you're not working on the League of Legends part of the app, you're working with little support, few guiding decisions and with near-zero resources.
- Senior and executive leadership clearly has little or very poor skills and experience being managers or company stewards. Feedback regarding this is outright ignored or literally shouted down.
- - Senior engineering leaders would literally tell me my perspective and knowledge didn't matter because I referenced my extensive previous experience under the guise of "Your past work doesn't make your present work correct." despite said leaders having less time working professionally than I had in my own specialty.
- Executives, who I had to work with directly on requests from them or projects on which they were stakeholders, would leave my messages without any response or acknowledgement for weeks on end regularly.
- Executives would belittle and shout dissenting opinions into silence. Your experience, skills or perspective didn't matter. Blitz App is their show, no one else's.
- Performance bonuses were verbally / Slack detailed and promised around personal and project metrics during the hiring process and first weeks, then completely ignored and even said to have never been real later on.
- Multiple colleagues were put on PIP's (Performance Improvement Plans) with literally no plan, just a date when they would be reevaluated. No criteria given and in most cases the date wouldn't be abided. This left these employees in a state of limbo where they neither knew why they were on a PIP nor when and how they could be released from the PIP.
