      Toxic, sinking ship of a once big tech platform - Anonymous employee Viber Employee Review

      Pros

      - Good benefits and salary as part of Rakuten - Interesting work as part of a platform - Insight into interesting markets where Viber is still big

      Cons

      - Future employee beware! Toxic management, plenty of politics - No clear direction, bosses simply push goals downwards to rank and file - Reflected in product development, how many sticker packs can staff push as an 'exciting new feature'? Either engineering has no guts to make strong bets, or lack technical ability to execute, either of which doesn't bode well for the company - Middle managers are 'king' of their own region domain, rampant favoritism - Zero strategy, Viber was expected to consolidate Rakuten's digital assets but is nowhere near that goal years on

      Pros

      - Corporate culture - Interesting business trips - Existence of the year bonus - Payment for the lunches - Cool team buildings - Amazing team

      Cons

      - Salary increase per year is just 50$ gross (max is 200$ but in case you are promoted from Manager to Lead) - I had the same amount of the year bonus for the whole period of my work - No opportunity to work remotely from any other country, you have to stay in your country and go to office on a hybrid mode
