Work Life Balance But Incompetent Middle Management

Engineering manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Low pressure, low stakes environment Great work life balance Decent pay

Cons

75% of engineering are basically monoculture chop shop drones that cycle from one legacy tech company to the other. If you enjoy working with smart people you won't be happy here long term. The icing on the cake is the thickest layer of useless middle managers endlessly looking at Jira .

Worst Senior Leadership

Customer success manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great benefits Christmas break shut down Flex program available

Cons

Employees hired from outside are considered as a low priority compared to tenured employees despite the competences. In the Customer Success Team, the Senior leadership encourages bullying by pitching people against each other. Promotions are based on perception, not facts or results and from a manager position, there is no designed career path. If you report anything to HR, there will likely be retaliation. Worst Senior Leadership i have seen in action in my entire career.
