Thank you for providing us with a review and for being part of our team for that long. It’s unfortunate to hear about how you’ve experienced the work/life balance. We do move in a dynamic fast paced market. And being part of that could of course be challenging. We always hope to make sure that our hard working employees do get enough spare time besides the good work that they do with us. That’s definitely valued feedback. It’s good to hear that you did enjoy the salary and the benefits whilst working for us. That should always be a part of the earlier mentioned dynamic and fast paced market. Thank you once more for your work with us for over a decade. We do wish you all the best with your future endeavors.

Pros

- Easy commute if you live north of Seattle/Bellevue - Decent cafeteria - Decent compensation

Cons

- The level of apathy amongst colleagues is off the charts. Many people are simply coasting and collecting a paycheck. When you try to be a team player and pick up the slack, you simply become a target for blame. - Due to the extremely lax "return to office" policy, the office often feels quite empty when there is plenty of work to be done. Being onsite M-F often leads to more work with little support. - There is a culture of public shaming, with several meetings every week dedicated to project leads targeting individuals to make up for their own lack of technical understanding.
