A company that doesn't care about employees, processes and product quality - Anonymous employee Lalamove Employee Review

- inexperienced management (from higher roles to team leaders) who does not know how to build and develop an IT company - management is not open for opinions opposite to their. The best way to work in a company is to be a YES man to everything. Proposing product improvements or process changes that go against management plans put you at risk of being fired. Your manager is always right, even if he is not - management is not focused on team performance improvement - management does not think in the long run about a product. The way of work is to put out fires, to work as a fire brigade - the company recently began the process of transition from recent to obsolete technologies, due to the merger with the Shenzhen office. If you are planning to grow and learn something new, it might be not the right place - bureaucracy. A lot of non necessary meetings, scorecards which were not used during assessment (but people are forced to fill it), etc. - management does not inform engineers about its future technical plan - a lot of engineers are not happy with different things inside the company but nobody whats to solve this problems. Company uses all possible ways to demotivate people - nobody thinks of processes anymore, company recently transitioned from agile to chaotic processes. Now management estimate tasks for engineers, there is no more technical backlog or time to improve the codebase, no clear owners for different areas of responsibility - nobody cares of design and product. Product and design decisions in most cases are not based on analytics. Product managers are told what to do, they don't make independent decisions. Engineers don't follow designers' layouts, design has the lowest priority. Sometimes engineers just create design by themselves - biased assessment. Assessment is based only on the opinion of your manager and you do not have the opportunity to tell your point of view. The annual assessment may be based on just one month of your work, and the rest of the time will not be considered. They as you to fill the scorecards, but scorecards are not used during the assessment
