SQAsquared reviews

While SQA is a great place to start to learn basic rules of QA, I would not recommend staying in this company very long unless you can get into a higher position. The pay compensation of this company is well below industry standards and while the raises seem like large increases every 6 months, they still do not compare to a QA position outside this company. Benefits are also lacking as the employee is only given medical. Most other companies I have been apart of have given employees medical, dental and vision benefits as a base level package. Also, the employees of the company are made to use a software developed by the company and while this software was innovative and made QA easier long ago, the current state of this software leaves the user in a perplexed state. There is a large list of bugs associated to the software and some of these bugs can be a deal breaker. They are also slow to adopt the use of other softwares in place of their current software, even when other softwares have been proven to work better and perform more overall tasks.

- Management micromanages everything - Small slip ups (i.e. having a typo in an email, or showing up 10 minutes late due to an accident) are blown out of proportion and you get called out in front of everyone - Little to no benefits - Management is never on site. To elaborate on this, there are 3 sites for this company. 2 are where you will most likely be working (aka the LA and OC office). The 3rd is an office that is all upper management, very little communication to the other offices. - Majority of upper management are family
