Great Company - Product Earny Employee Review

1. Very friendly and smart coworkers 2. Great company culture. There are events constantly going on. From weekly team lunches and workouts, to happy hours, team outings, game nights, etc. 3. Cool office environment. Open floor plan, lots of snacks, coffee/tea, games (including pop a shot!) and comfortable lounge areas 4. The leadership team is very transparent 5. Easy commute to work. The office is located close to the Metro station

Not a lot of walkable lunch options around the office. But the company does have a Postmates account with free delivery which makes up for it :)

- 2 days catered lunch - "Freedom" to innovate - Great engineering team before a majority was laid off

- Micromanaging - No real consistent technical leadership - Extreme amounts of security theater (gate keeping and "feel good" measures) - 2 rounds of layoffs within 3 months; laying off 50% of the company -- This metric ensures that anyone on a visa cannot renew. BEWARE. - Layoffs as a cost-cutting measure instead of strategic - Uncompetitive pay and equity offering - Extremely low valuation target (death spiral) - Rewards success, stability, and skill with layoffs. - Expects you to work after being laid off - Company has no real competitive edge in the market - Extremely long work hours exceeding 24 hour shifts on occasion dealing with outages. No concept of real "on-call" escalation. - 30 minute standups If you enjoy having to work 18 hour shifts because another engineer broke your system at 6pm on a Friday then sign right up. The team is constantly at odds being able to build out features and support what was already built. Empty promises to improve and fix the technical debt were met with "work harder".
