Align Technology Reviews

Culture is cold and broken. Political. A lot of framing and manipulation, trying to distract and gloss over problems. Lack of communication across regions and departments. Turnover is high. People on top don't listen to new ideas, just stick to their old ways. No breakthroughs or fresh perspectives. Many Directors are condescending, hypocritical, micromanagers who are not held accountable and keep getting away with bad (even inappropriate) behavior. WLB depends on the job and team. One may have a better experience if they luck out with an amazing team with an amazing Manager, but everybody knows that the company 1000% does NOT care, will want you to work 24/7 and will drop you without a 2nd thought in order to get better numbers. Unrealistic timelines and expectations with a lack of resources/ guidance/ support. A lot of "opportunities" for work that you are not qualified for and not trained on. No hybrid work arrangement.

Inflexible when it comes to remote working request. Stagnant on following black and white that force employees to sign on. Some Managers are just inflexible, MNC but it feels like working under a SME environment.
