Pros

Sigma has a 3% voluntary attrition rate, which is incredible compared to the industry standard of 18%. People love it here. From an engineering standpoint, there is no shortage of interesting problems to solve. I genuinely enjoy my work (well, 90% of days-- I mean, it's still a job). My coworkers are thoughtful, respectful, brilliant people. I really enjoy working with them, learning from them, and just hanging out with them. I've also found awesome mentors who have been instrumental in my growth as an engineer. Work-life balance is great, especially for a startup. The pace of work is fast enough to keep things interesting and facilitate career growth, but it's not so fast that I get burned out. We're strongly encouraged to take our unlimited PTO, which is typically very flexible. I love working at Sigma, and I don't plan to leave soon. Highly recommend you come join us!!

Cons

There aren't any cons for me.

Strong talent Good pay and perks Large acv

Cons

Simply calling this organization political doesn't illustrate how conniving leadership is here. Strong favoritism and disregard for merit. Saw really talented individuals sabotaged because their existence undermined another's agenda. Falling behind on AI. We used to be the innovative company in this space but now we're months behind from our competitors. Our success historically has nothing to do with our capabilities it's how we brand our capabilities. We do much more selling of our roadmap versus selling what we actually do. Leadership is just looking for a liquidity event to line their pockets and dip. When a company's sole purpose is to cash out it means they don't see long-term value in our space. Great companies that will be around for the long run are looking to capture market, organizations with little to contribute to a space look to get paid out. We'll be another Sisense, Domo, or thoughtspot nothing more. If you are good at brown nosing this is the place for you. But even then you'll stay in your seat forever. There is little upward mobility in this company. They look to pay for external talent over generating a culture of growth. Not a good place to be early on in your career. When you build an army of mercenaries everyone flees at this first sign of trouble.
