Horrible company

Business Outlook

Pros

Good technology and good coworkers

Cons

Mm where to start..... No work life balance at all they expect you to work, eat and sleep with the company in your head.. lots of employees left because of that Micro management like I've never seen before Horrible raises and bonuses Got rid off regular PTO (used to be 15 days and 20 days after 5 years)and moved to the biggest scam ever unlimited PTO which I you believe are required to get approvals from HR and others if you take more than 2 weeks in row

Symbotic Response

We are very sorry you feel this way about the company and encourage you to reach out directly as we definitely try to balance work and life at our company and this may be a particular issue you are having vs a systematic issue. We also did move to unlimited time off which provides employees more flexibility - we understand your sentiments but moving to this approach is an industry best practice in technology companies. We are happy to have a one on one discussion with you if you are comfortable and encourage you to reach out directly.
