Sharecare reviews

Some senior developers are stuck in the past. They want to embed JSTL code deep within .TAG within .TAG within .TAG for no apparent reason. If it's not being re-used, why not just code everything in the .JST? It made no sense and when I went against the standard I was talked poorly about behind my back to anyone with an ear. Eventually enough ears took notice and I was released from my position due to "lack of work". They did not once approach me to discuss any areas of improvement -- after speaking to another employee, he told me he was "scared to be fired every single day" -- which is a sentiment I heard often, especially after they lay off groups of 4-5 people at a time every few months. There's absolutely no job security with Sharecare and the management staff does nothing to help cultivate the behavior they want to see within their own team.

1. Terrible vacation/paid time off policy compared to other companies. 2. Disorganized structure around project development and deliverables, all pressure falls on employees when the fault comes from the management level employees. 3. Departments work closely together, but their attitude is very flexible around project deliverables which can cause fires to spread in every direction. 4. Working overtime, on weekends and holidays is expected for all full time employees. 5. Management takes full advantage of their 'status' for flex work schedules, employees are under their boot in regards to flex schedules so it depends who you work for. 6. More often than desired projects can move way too quickly. 7. Project priorities are all over the place, the agile pace of development can affect other projects and stall them, which in turn affects the outcome of a quarterly performance. Most if not all fault will lie in a bottom line employee rather than management. 8. Random firing occurs, hiring is slow and this is rarely reported to employees. This is a big issue because the large scale effects of this spread throughout the company. The results take the shape of: loss of money, overworked employees, lack of performance in other departments and it can end up affecting you without notice. 9. Upward mobility is non existent, all long term employees have never moved 'up the ladder' all management level people are recent hires.
