Pros

most of the fellow devs are very smart and kind people

Cons

Director level and up is a black box that provides no feedback. Everything is a priority so nothing is leads to bouncing around between projects never finishing anything yearly lay offs so nobody is comfortable off shoring most positions to cost cut no promotion or raise plan in place very high attrition rate so few people have legacy knowledge trying to work with global time zones makes productivity crawl insane amount of process oriented overhead to accomplish even the smallest task leadership is completely checked out from engineering everything that made new relic great is being systematically dismantled

Man, this was a great company back in the day. Almost everyone is gone now.

Cons

Horrific middle management. This was all a long time ago though. The people I worked with are all gone.

Pros

Good PTO policy Most coworkers are nice

Cons

Executive leadership needs an overhaul. CMO is toxic and has caused many long standing people to leave the company. She only hires people that will say yes to her. Most people in leadership are too afraid to push back in fear of getting fired like previous peers. Does not treat people well in general.
