Decent company, terrible team/org
Pros
1. Good work life balance 2. Helpful, friendly people all across the org 3. CEO seems like he knows what he is doing 4. The upper management is receptive to feedback
Cons
I know people who have great things to say about the company and while I can't speak to the entire company, I unfortunately did not have a good experience in my team/org: 1. My team and org reeks of favoritism and your efforts and work will most probably go unnoticed if you are not in great, beer-drinking terms with your manager. 2. No transparency in the performance reviews or the months leading up to it even though 'transparency' is touted as one of the top focus for the team. You might also get heavily penalized if you go against any of the favorites on the team. 3. Salary hikes are near 0 and the stock refreshers are negligible 4. Talent is average at best but then again if you are friends with your manager, you will be considered a rockstar and can expect multiple promotions and great reviews. 5. Projects weren't too interesting . (can't speak to the other teams however) 6. Oh and did I mention, too much politics and favoritism within the team?
