BrowserStack reviews about "manager"

Strategic Shifting: There is a noticeable disconnect between high-level aggressive growth targets and the ground-level reality of market saturation. Micro-management: Some teams manifest as heavy manual reporting. BDRs find themselves spending significant time documenting every minute detail rather than focusing on actual prospecting or strategy. Lay off Spree: Sudden restructuring saw managers and BDRs fired via email with instant laptop lockouts. High-pressure environment where employees are treated as replaceable units, not people.

1- Very toxic senior management(They think we are AI, expecting 18x productivity from us after Claude was provided, like, are you guys sick or what?) 2-As per the new policy, they expect everyone to use Claude and write a task brief on their own, create ui/ux, backend code, frontend code, qa automation, and ship to production (does not matter at what designation you are, be it product manager, software engineer(frontend, backend), or ui/ux guy 3- Hard deadlines 4-People are working more than 12-13 hours on average, and still, managers are not happy, and so the senior management is 5- they don't think of the employee at all (be it your health or whatever) 6-In the name of unlimited leaves, if you take leave, you are asked a question(my colleague has been asked questions when he just took 15 leaves in a year) 7- earlier this company used to be good when I joined, their Glassdoor rating was 4.4, and now 4, so you can understand how bad restructuring is going on. 8- Recently, they revoked offers as well for the new joinees, saying bandwidth is getting saved because of Claude (are you guys sick?) 9- Compensation is too low compared to the amount of work they are expecting, and we are delivering right now 11- Btw, all these are common to all the new teams formed, and older teams are a little bit stable and have work-life balance, but you won't be assigned to that team for sure, so honest advice, don't join this company at all, else it would turn out to be a nightmare for you.

I personally haven’t experienced any major downsides so far. I’ve been with the company for almost 2 years, and my experience has been very positive overall.

Since it's fully remote, you don't always get a strong sense of who your colleagues are beyond work. More company-sponsored outings or in-person cadences would go a long way in building those connections

not too many cons except that you will get a lot of pressure from certain managers

Still needs some time to establish workflows to eventually become a settled processed org. Pretty fixable with time so technically not much of a con.

There are no major cons at the moment, although the workload can sometimes feel overwhelming depending on the shift. However, the team does a great job at managing and supporting each other. Another downside is the pay scale, I was expecting a better offer, but there wasn’t much room for negotiation.
