Disappointing Leadership and Poor Decision-Making - Software Engineer Alation Employee Review

This company is a joke. They have been doing multiple rounds of layoffs under the guise of “AI transformation,” while shifting most jobs to India. They’re following the unfortunate trend in the Bay Area of cutting local teams and outsourcing talent. If you look at the CEO’s LinkedIn posts, you’d think the company is thriving with an exciting roadmap ahead — but it’s all smoke and mirrors. The reality inside is instability, broken trust, and a workforce living in constant fear of the next round of cuts.
