Pros
Opportunity to meet with some good folks to share the misery
Cons
Latest flood of forced reviews for this company should tell you all about what to await inside. Even with the flood of positive ratings, ceo approval rating wouldn’t budge. Let me list some facts here so they don’t get muddied: -CEO: Believes in speed above all else, aspires to be Rockafeller of healthcare. So he needs an empire, doesn’t care about much else. Definitely not employees. -CTO: non-technical, no idea about how to solve the problems in a technical organization. All he does is blame orher people for his repeated failures. -head of infra/product/AI: all new grads with no industry experience. They have absolute control over tech. You will see things being built here in ways you will never see anywhere else, be prepared. -outages: unsurprisingly, multiple times every week, sometimes day. You are expected to be oncall 24/7. If you don’t pick up, you will be shamed publicly. -churn: customer churn is at levels unheard of. So is employee churn, anybody with any offer just packs up and leaves, avg tenure of employee must be like 1 year for a company that’s been around for 7 years. You do the math. -environment: like a funeral home every day. you can see the joy squeezed out of all engineers every day. Most are new grads trying to get visa extension.
