They pay well and that's it

Sales

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Pays well, both base salary & stock

Cons

Everything else. The CEO doesn't care at all about his employees. He pays well so he doesn't need to do anything else to make your life better. Unlimited time off is a joke. You're expected to be in the office 5 days a week because Hock Tan states he's creating a culture. It's a cut throat culture where most employees are miserable.

Work culture not good

Customer service representative

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Worst work culture, and lack of leadership support.

Cons

We use to receive email from management about to follow and complete the ethics and compliance assessment but in my team I have never seen this. I noticed instances of favoritism and office politics that seemed to undermine team cohesion and morale. It became apparent that certain individuals were consistently prioritized over others, regardless of merit or contributions. This favoritism not only affected team dynamics but also created an atmosphere of disengagement and frustration among those who felt overlooked. Additionally, I observed a costly gift given to a manager, which raised concerns about the implications this may have on perceptions of favoritism and ethical conduct within the team. Such actions can erode trust and transparency, leading to an unhealthy work environment. Supervisor name Shashank Rele

You trade your soul for company RSUs

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- RSUs - That's it - Nothing else, just RSUs

Cons

- Bad Culture. No culture at all. - Very very eager to lay anyone off. Want to acquire and just kill the company. - Compulsory 5 days WFO. - Attendance tracked, infact everything tracked. Every key stroke. - No concept for Work Life Balance - Feels like you're working in a labor camp in WW2 times. - All employer friendly policies, no employee friendly policies.
