...res for employees, and put effort to provide them great working environment. 2. The compensation is almost on par with industry standards of medium scale software company. While it's subjective. I feel it's really doing the justice on this front. 3. You can really enjoy the benefits of work life balance flexible work timing. And company offers full remote work. 4. Management is good and transparent about the company goals and paths. Over all a great company to work for.

...ebex call from the manager, you get to know that you have lost your job. Perfect timing because stocks were not vested, and new hike salary was amiss. If this is not fraudulent, cheater-like behavior, I don’t know what is. They are putting effort in Linode now, which is going to be a big flop. Strongly recommend you don’t join this workplace, because you will not feel welcomed here - there are old folks who are stuck for decades and the axe is always on the new comers. There’s not much growth in terms of learning either. They follow legacy method of working and are extremely resistant to change. The future jobs that they will generate are also not secure because the leadership mentioned in the townhall “layoffs might happen again if the need arises”.
