Pros

A collection of really good people, a core mission and CEO/founders which are easily to believe in, and good company culture make Enigma a great place to be on the day to day provided you are under one of the better managers. I have great confidence in the success in the company as a whole.

Cons

Not many of those great managers, and a strong pivot away from the engineering and public data that makes the company a great place to be in favor of max corporate B2B snakeoil sales. Engineering is bleeding talent and both pay an d equity are at least 15% below market averages. I have little confidence in the long term survival of most of the engineering efforts.

Management Issues

Pros

- Intelligent, friendly, and compassionate colleagues - Interesting product domain - Fun outings organized by the company and free lunch events.

Cons

- Management prides itself on transparency; yet, most decisions made are obfuscated. - Engineering teams are stretched too thin, under-manned, and overworked. - No clear path for promotion or raises; some engineering roles are under-paid. - Products are left to languish. Company vision is focused years out when it should be focused on making quality products now. - Company culture can be overly sensitive or immensely juvenile at times. - Management is fiercely political and, at times, territorial over how the company used to be run, instead of how it should be run now.

Some good, some bad

Pros

Flexible work environment, long-term potential for the company overall, and intelligent, dedicated people.

Cons

Difficult to build new relationships - even on your own team. Engineering is full of condescending people, inexperienced managers. People often think they know more and have more experience than anyone else which leads to decisions made without other stakeholders. Continued disorganized attempts (offsites, hack days) at furthering the engineering organization leading to more disgruntled employees.
