Toxic culture and incompetent management

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- opportunity to forget about WLB and use 100% of your time to work - you learn how to play office politics - you learn how to pushback when coworkers were calling you over the weekend

Cons

- nepotism toward Indian - low salary but you got chance to enjoy the next level of toxic culture from Amazon - have to work 7 days a week 12 hours per day, otherwise you will get pip or silent layoff - top performers who actually producing won’t get promoted. You have to be Indian, and learn how to backstabbing, politics is the key to success here
