Fantastic company, bad decisions - Anonymous employee Q2 Software Employee Review

Great company overall * Leaders communicate the business strategies and successes regularly * Benefits + compensation are great/competitive * Training is fantastic and always available * Innovation is always encouraged * Great fintech company * Tons of activities for inclusion for onsite workers

* Tech stacks are kind of all over the place - various cloud solutions in place with high cost usage. This is not all that bizarre when a company like Q2 acquires a startup and their very specific software stack.

Pay (salary + bonus + equity) was ok

HRBPs are sinking the ship. They are making business decisions, hiring/firing decisions for the business units. They sit on interview panels just to ask some behavioral questions that any of the other interviewers could ask. They inconsistently apply extreme policies (not even talking about the RTO). The company says they want to grow to be a billion dollar company. No company has ever done it with HR policies. I've been at companies a tenth of the size and trillion dollar companies. None have had the HR policies that Q2 has. The business model is also not sustainable. The number of financial institutions in the US has been shrinking for 20+ years. And once the local banks get scooped up by the JP Morgan Chases, they'll be using the Chase mobile app, not Q2's software.
