Good People. Bad Management.

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Very good work community. Company getting better at understanding work/life balance. Challenging work.

Cons

Performance management system needs improvement. It doesn't contain enough checks and balances for contested reviews. Matrix organization with a low overhead budget means that many functional managers do not have enough time to know what their employees do on a day-to-day basis, but they are the ones writing the annual reviews. Very little oversight of performance at the functional management level and above.
