Simon AI Software Engineer reviews

Leadership is really bad. Instead of improving the product and investing in current paying customers and improving their experience, leadership chooses to build out new products to drive sales. This results in a lot of customer churn and lagging sales due to incomplete products getting rushed. This obviously results in low morale and a need to cut costs. When it comes to cutting costs, instead of turning off some wildly expensive rarely used feature, they choose to fire people. This further decreases morale. The result of these poor decisions is a diminished workforce with terrible morale and a lot of customer churn.

Simon lost about 40% of engineers over the last 10 months. Combination of below market pay (series D did not materialize) and increasingly toxic engineering management. The management culture on the engineering team has gotten steadily worse over the last year. Encountered situations where managers claimed credits for projects they haven't contributed to and bad mouthed former employees on reference checks. Did not use to be like this.
