Admirable intentions, poor execution - Senior Software Engineer II Ethyca Employee Review

Ethyca is on the verge of something great when it comes to finding a solution to our right to privacy online. The company vision is one we all believe in and know that in time it's going to make a huge difference to our confidence and control of personal data privacy. We are facing a huge but exciting technology and design challenge and we're growing the team quickly to achieve this. It's a great time to be part of this journey. As an aside, the company has been excellent in how it has dealt with the sudden impact of COVID-19 recently and with that, has treated all employees extremely well during this time, in terms of our remote working needs and on a personal level making sure everyone remains closely connected to each other during this time.

It's a startup! Be ready for a wild ride :)

Interesting open source contributions, grand vision for privacy protections, lots of opportunities for ownership at a high turnover startup

Large tech-debt backlog and firefighting timespend, short tenures, unsteady culture
