Toxic - Anonymous employee Mindera Employee Review

The back-biting, back-stabbing and and gaslighting at Mindera were beyond anything I've ever seen anywhere. It's intensely cliquey and the rejection of conventional management appears to have led to an insecure, ego-driven boys' club culture that's completely out of balance. Transparent, collaborative working styles were heavily frowned upon and reckless, domineering approaches were encouraged and prized above all else, including outcomes. Power appeared to be naively handed out to the most obsequious, politically-minded people (usually also the least technical), then misused and abused with no accountability and predictably nasty consequences. While there are still some competent, principled engineers at Mindera who I enjoyed working with and would gladly work with again, I couldn't recommend it as an organisation. If my experience of the business is anything to go by, it's heading from bad to worse and a lot of people are starting to move on.
