Good place to enhance technical skills but disastrous people management

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Technically rewarding, good pay and benefits

Cons

Very political, no appreciation for good work, quick-to-complain mentality, egoistic and directionless management, no efforts to retain good talent, vacation policy favors only the "buddies-with-boss" employees, lately not enough RSUs, slow promotion cycles, indirect expectation to work late hours/weekends all thru the year. Caution for new employees - make sure you research about the group and the immediate manager before joining. Certain groups have a track record of eccentric managers harassing people eventually leading to massive exodus.
