Fanatics Software Developer reviews

Can be stessful, fire lower performers

Extremely political company, full of favoritisms and dishonesty, with most employees being afraid to speak the truth or contradict their managers. I've rarely seen such disconnect between Product and Engineering, with so many self-contradicting messages between what is being preached and what is actually done. There's a crude lack of empathy for employees at any level, with the top leaders pretending that the company is better than other monsters in the tech industry, but you rarely see mass layoffs anywhere else from one day to another (and folks learning about it while being on vacation). While some of the ex-FAANG engineers are top notch, they are completely incompatible with leaders from the gambling industry, that have unrealistic expectations on project timelines, deliverables and their quality. To summarize, unless you want to live in a continuous lie where Yes Men are awarded and failures are re-packaged sold as wins, stay away from the Betting and Gaming division.
