Avantages

Great resources for upskilling in AI Some of the smartest co-workers

Inconvénients

Engineers have gone into survival mode. 3 months of rolling layoffs have left everyone rattled/spooked. People don't raise questions or concerns anymore because they're afraid of drawing attention to themselves that leads to them being let go too. Job stability seems attached to some vague notion of impact. However that impact had better involve AI in some way. The safest way to show impact is to get yourself attached to the CEO's pet project FAST, an LLM powered analytics query engine. Quality/Stability/Maintainability have taken a back seat to flashy new features. The few remaining QA/SDET employees have been let go. Trust in employees have eroded. The new holiday deployment plan includes approval gates from VP level employees before deploying to production. That type of judgement used to be left to the teams maintaining those systems. There are rumors of senior leadership evaluating employee's AI token use to ensure they're following AI mandates. A growing list of respected employees keep turning in resignations. It feels like an exodus is starting, leaving the rest of us high-and-dry. It's heartbreaking. We used to be one of those "best places to work" companies. It's amazing how fast a great culture can turn sour.

Avantages

Good benefits, great pto policy, great rewards system, on paper the company looks great

Inconvénients

-incompetent leadership (not all, but a good portion) -bait and switch style hire process -they don't have solid direction on where they are headed so it's a lot of top-down confusion -leaders have heads in the clouds but don't know how the tactical things happen, so there are two different realities amongst execs and the lower level employees doing the work -pay comparisons are questionable -microaggressions, bullying, and bias run rampant as it's not much diversity -absolutely no one knows who does what, so you will spend hours or days finding the right person just to get a task done OR question answered. Causing unnecessary delays and tension. -Because of the ai first nature, a lot of people are hired that don't have a clue what they are doing tactically. So conversations and next steps are written and fueled by ai. -Everyone talks like walking philosopher degrees with unnecessary filler and jargon to SOUND like they know what they are doing, but not enough tactical skill. Semantics are huge here. Because of this, ALOT of miscommunication and confusion happens. -They don't have the proper organization or management tools, just slack heavy... as you can imagine chaos breeds in this space. Everyone says "Welcome to Fetch" instead of just hiring the right leaders to bring structure asap. -The focus is too much on doing whatever to get the job done and hit revenue goals.
