Work/life balance great, feeling accomplish and working with great leadership not so much - Engineer Xero Employee Review

* New Zealand centric, meaning that Denver always gets the worst projects because NZ gets first picks. * New opinions are not valued. * Ideas should come from the bottom, direction should come from the top, but that's not the case at Xero. This might differ by team, I hope it does. * Just the other day a "tech lead" got mad with an employee because they didn't do things his way. He showed his frustration by throwing his headset. This is the type of people that Xero's culture reinforces. Why? Because there won't be any consequences for that type of behavior. * No work is been done here. I can corroborate what another reviewer said, I also see people play video games throughout the day. * As far as technology, Xero seems to do things backwards. Some teams are against what other great tech companies are doing. * Employees get promoted not because of merit but because they've been there a long time. This is not always the case but it happens more than it should.
