FanDuel Software Developer reviews

- Zero social events - Onboarding is not a priority at all despite the amount of employees being hired - Offices closed until the end of February despite restrictions easing right now - No effort to make FanDuel a fun place to work - No effort to pay people the same that they would get if they left to another company I could go into more bullet points but honestly... it just seems like the culture of FanDuel is gone. There is no people aspect to the company, there is not even the suggestion of in person events, no Christmas dinner etc., and the employees who seem to have defined FanDuel's culture are leaving in droves. The management team is very much a different "clique" to the normal employees which feels very corporate and American "top-down". The management team don't want to hear your feedback, they don't want to hear any negative, and that means that the negative stuff that's happening just keeps happening. You really feel like you're working on a sinking ship.

Where to start… - low pay - incompetent managers and leaders. This stems from the fact that a lot of these people are under qualified or they were ops people who somehow made it into management. They have no idea what they’re doing and I’ve been at many companies - super underqualified devs. Completely honestly, these engineers are worse than computer science 101 students and boot camp students. Half of them don’t know how to google. The other half doesn’t know how to dig through a stack trace. There are no “seniors” or “principals” the ones with those titles definitely aren’t senior level engineers when comparing with senior level engineers at other companies. If you wanna skate by and do the minimum, by all means join. If you care about furthering your career, do not join.
