Stay away - Engineering Blis Employee Review

This has been one of the worst companies I've ever worked for. The problems are many and the benefits are few. As a developer in the engineering team at Blis, you would be mistaken in thinking that engineering is a term used to define a process in which skilled individuals engineer a system for high performance, fault tolerance, and any other adjectives you want to throw at a well designed system. You may even use the term to describe the process in which software is built using the best practices in the industry in relation to testing, CI/CD, development workflow, tooling, and maybe it even extends to the code you write. However at Blis, none of that takes a front seat. In fact, it's called a distraction. Why spend so much time on any of this when you can be writing code which delivers feature after feature? Don't worry about the fact that an issue can be undiscovered for months at a time which actually costs the business money, just make sure you don't spend that extra hour or so creating tests so that you can catch that problem early. Who needs that certainty of the software that you build? Certainly not Blis. If you are at the end of your career or you just want to write code, then fine, you shall take all responsibility for your misguided career choice. If, on the other hand, you are actually a respected developer who takes pride in their work, stay far away as possible. Blis is like a car on the motorway travelling at 70mph and whilst driving, they snip the brake lines, remove the airbags, cut off the seat belts, destroy the speedometer, and open the fuel cap and tempt fate with a lighter; nothing might not actually happen, but should they ride their luck too long, it's going to blow up like bonfire night.
