Good product and engineering, bad management - Engineering SingleStore Employee Review

We appreciate hearing from our current employees, and encourage honest feedback as it helps us learn how we can be better. We do have a zero tolerance policy when it comes to a "toxic" or hostile work environment, so please contact your Human Resources business partner to discuss this issue further. Your conversation will be kept private and confidential. We have no record of anything even close to what you mention about the work environment from anyone to date. This handicaps us from making your valuable feedback actionable - something we would like to do with urgency. Regarding the previous history for any of our employees, we do a very thorough background check to ensure that everyone who joins SingleStore is aligned with our corporate values and virtues and meets the highest level of integrity-again, we have a ZERO tolerance policy here. This past September we had to say goodbye to some of our colleagues to align with our future growth plans in a fast changing landscape - no different from what a vast majority of companies did. This was after we had taken a “no layoff for 90 days” pledge at the start of the pandemic to ensure the emotional wellbeing of our colleagues. Since then, we have welcomed 37 new colleagues and our plan for this year is to add more than 100 new employees, with a fair share of those in your Engineering department. We are a growing company with no plans for layoffs. We at HR are here for you - pls come speak to us and we will action your feedback immediately.
