Mozilla reviews

There doesn't seem to be any paths for advancement in the company anymore. After two re-orgs (and four CEOs) in two years the company seems more interesting in putting the cogs into the places it needs them than it is finding a good balance between individual's career goals and the work the company needs to do. There doesn't seem to by anyone steering the ship, so different groups will often be working on the same problem without any collaboration or idea that anyone else in the company is working on the same thing. Pay for new comers is good, but the company doesn't keep up with the rising salaries in the tech industry and you will very quickly be making below the average salary in the industry, and the company is actively trying to keep employes below average salary for their position. With very few paths "up the ladder" your pay will stagnate pretty quickly.

leadership has no clue what they're doing. They're running Mozilla like a for profit except it doesn't make any profit, and they have no incentives to do otherwise. Rolling layoffs for the past 2 years. They buy startups just to shutter them. They start and grow products and kill them off just as they've reached a tipping point. They miss easy layups like chrome moving to manifest v3 for extensions. Honestly it feels like they're just on the Titanic stuffing as much silverware into their pockets as they can at this point.
