Unhealthy Work Culture

Senior software engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

There's a wide range of great technology to learn. IT support is good such as nice quality laptops and latest tools.

Cons

Management preys on the naïve and hardworking. Poor compensation compared to workload. Promotion is rare. Instead, hardworking engineers are given more tasks. Work is assigned to you exponentially unless you voice out. Many teams are under-staffed. Turnover rate is high. Long working hours have become a norm. It is not good for family and health. Many software engineers don't bother anymore because they can quit anytime for a better job.

The managers play chainsaws at night

Pros

Nothing. They won't let u sleep and tell you to keep their eyes open.

Cons

U was deprived of sleep for nine months. I'm surprised I didn't die on the way to work. They had the managers (including one pregnant woman) chant in screeching voices, "KEEP Your Eyes open" while playing a chainsaw at 3 am. The ADAS SW group are barbaric savages.

Good benefits package, above average PTO

Office politics, dated workflow, tools and processes, cannot hold on to talent, seem to know how to "utilize" visa workers, lots of frustrating inefficiencies.
