"Humans are not resources". Funny that the biggest mantra at the company that the leadership and everyone else who's drowned in the cool aid preaches on the regular yet that's exactly how they treat their own employees. If you can make it through their rigorous Interview process, congrats. You're part of the "lucky 1%" who apply and end up joining. The company does a great job of making you feel like you're joining a "family" but after your first couple of weeks, your "family" is already too busy welcoming the next batch of new hires to care about you. If you don't start working on some highly visible projects, you'll be seen as not contributing and likely start getting flagged as a replaceable resource.
The amount of Stanford nepotism at the company is insane. Good luck moving up the ranks if you didn't go to Stanford for undergrad or get an mba there. Pretty much 99% of the young leadership went there and it's disgusting how high their noses are sometimes.
There are way too many smart people there doing mindless work just for the company name. Morale is incredibly low across multiple teams but their managers aka PE's (people empowerer) get them to truck along with the false promise of switching teams and taking on more responsibilities. The term "PE" is a joke. They don't empower you to do anything. If you saying anything negative about the work you're doing or the company, you'll get shunned from your "family".
Don't believe the 5-star reviews on here. They're likely all from the HR team or written by new hires in their first week since that's one of the to dos when you join. Seriously?
I'm glad there are more and more honest reviews on here since the company doesn't actually care about their employees. They work you day and night and on weekends without any remorse. The ceo has openly said he doesn't believe in work life balance because if you love your job, there's no difference.
If you're looking at joining this company, be sure to bring up all the negative reviews you read here and vet them as much as they vet you. My biggest regret is not doing that when I interviewed.
