Everything is slow and hierarchal at the company tech-wise. In engineering, you hardly have any say in anything. Product leadership, although many people, is distant, confused and unapproachable.
Engineering leadership is almost none. They tell us to be positive but don’t solve anything or help. They like to go for long walks for meetings rather than help at a desk. Other reviews stating the same are very accurate in this point.
Executives live in their own world where they only talk to each other, go to offsites and generally delegate tasks to others without input. Management is distant to tech leaders and always telling what to do and find out later that they needed to think about it more. Even managers and directors around the company seem to just do whatever executives say without questioning anything.
The company is not transparent like they try to say- everything is kept secret. In tech, we have almost no idea of what is going on- maybe they don’t know too or just afraid. The company fires smart people if they don’t agree with you, or people just leave. CX had layoffs so they can outsource their jobs. Recently engineers, managers and directors in product are leaving too for better jobs.
Morale is low in tech and across the company as we overhear things. The outlook here doesn’t seem good for some time now.
