There’s a shadow over the workplace culture here, and it's pretty toxic. It feels like the senior managers don't really see us as people, but more like work machines. They talk a big game about caring for our career growth, but at the end of the day, it feels like they couldn't care less. And I fell for the recruiter’s pitch, hook, line, and sinker. Benefits and raises are like myths here; they're talked about but never really seen. And if you ever decide to leave, brace yourself for some wild stories they'll make up about why you're going. I've even heard them straight-up lying about why someone left, which is just low. The products we work on are constantly on fire because of the rush to push them out, which isn’t doing anyone any favors. If you try to speak up about any of this. Suddenly, you're the troublemaker who can't be managed.
Just like other reviews you might have seen on Glassdoor, take them seriously and think hard before you decide to join. I was in your shoes, won over by their sales pitch about how great this company is. But once you're in, the reality hits you. You're stuck working 50 to 60 hours a week, which not only makes it super hard to think about leaving but also leaves you with no time or energy to nail interviews at other companies. It feels like you're trapped.
