Dexcom reviews

Very chaotic. Many projects are driven by project managers who are simply marching to deadlines. Process steps are designed without critical specifications or in many cases even proper documentation because again: deadlines. One can raise concerns but these are brushed off if timelines do not line up. Very frequently the rushed project will come screaming back needing to be redone with proper documentation/specs/operating window however at an even more frantic pace. So many times projects that could have been done properly if given time, but take three times as long and four times the effort due to rushing & corner cutting. It is very to enter the office and find that everything is "on fire". Get prepared for 30-40 people zoom calls, where most participants are idea generators and only 2-3 "do'ers". Many many hand offs and many groups operating independently lead to a very chaotic and stressful work environment. Dexcom is not a good environment for new engineers to learn how to become a successful engineer.

Never worked for a company with so little regard to the daily burden the company places on the employee. From non existent to horrible parking arrangements from slim to none parking options, to so crammed in you will sustain vehicle damage. To a draconian it department that has no thought to the amount of work that cannot be accomplished due to their policies and procedures. HR tries to sell itself as employee friendly but comes out at the bottom of mediocre as best. Executive management has great ideas and leadership that is completely watered down by incompetent at best, to political sabotage by a middle management layer looking to cash out their stock options. They have no career path for anyone, there is no mentoring, or help in learning how middle management wants things done until one day even with all the positive annual reviews and raises they will discard you as an employee during the annual November layoffs. I’ve personally seen middle management engage in illegal and ill advised harassment of all stripes to be backed by an incompetent HR department. Many of these management offenders are known and HR policies keep them employed while removing any employees that say anything. They continue to struggle with employee churn because of these known issues. It’s not uncommon for employees to only be there for a year or two until they leave for better jobs, or they are forced out by internal politics.
