Good co-workers, but senior management was clueless about technology. Hopefully this has improved since I left. - Software Development Manager Corbis Employee Review

Pros

Compensation, at least within the technology area, was quite competitive, and many of the employees there were excellent.

Cons

Previous CEO was clueless about technology, and replaced a capable and nice CTO with one who showed poor ability and poorer character. The new CTO was shown the door within a few months, but by then a lot of damage had already been done. Also, the business leadership had a well-earned reputation for flailing and switching strategies.

Pros

Amazingly friendly coworkers, great tech stack and opportunities to learn. SWEs have the opportunity to wear a lot of hats.

Cons

Management had some issues from what I heard, but I was always too busy developing and improving great products. It was a tough market with the ever-shrinking stock photography market, which was likely the reason for it's demise. If the developers working at Corbis had a more relevant market fit, the company would have soared.
