YipitData reviews

It was nice for a while, but things became increasingly corporate and opaque. The first round of layoffs damaged trust in leadership, and subsequent decisions around cost-cutting and organizational changes did little to restore it. Midway through my time here, I was reassigned to a new reporting line and it quickly became clear it wasn’t a great fit. Priorities and expectations shifted constantly, and feedback was solicited from my peers in a way that felt more punitive than developmental. I shared with leadership and HR that this dynamic was stressful and uncomfortable, and while there were some basic attempts to mediate, the issues continued, and my request to move to a different reporting line was denied. When our team was asked to document all of our projects and processes, I asked if it seemed a little strange. We were assured it wasn’t, and that they just needed super detailed instructions for everything we did so that they could free us up for better, higher-impact work! With hindsight, being laid off a month later made sense. It was disappointing and weirdly heartbreaking to have been so engaged with the company, only for the process to feel so impersonal and transactional.

underpaid for the work and prepare to be micromanaged
