Good pay overshadowed by inflexible policies and unrealistic demands

Senior software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Pays well but that is about it.

Cons

Policies strictly enforced even if you have a disability. No exceptions (except if you are a favorite) to any policy. Unreasonable deadlines that nobody but upper management set. Strong push to use ai, so they expect more to be done in less time meaning code is pushed with little to no testing and reviews are a joke. Pushing all their Senior staff out after giving a raise and claiming performance issues for the first time. Pay isn't enough to deal with the culture here.

Business Outlook

Pros

1. Good pay 2. Hard-working colleagues

Cons

There are many but here are the top two: 1. Incompetent leadership - Questionable decisions in terms of operational and GTM strategy. ICs are overwhelmed with unrealistic expectations in terms of workload; you could work 24/7 and still never be caught up. Impact: most of the top performers have left, and the ones who remain have little work-life balance. 2. Nepotism Culture - Promotions/opportunities are not merit-based. People who get rewarded are those with personal connections to leadership or those who can kiss the most a**. Impact: don't expect to get promoted based off of performance.
