Thank you for taking the time to leave a review; I appreciate it! I agree; the people, culture, and benefits at Glassdoor are all top-notch. Glassdoor has heard the feedback about compensation and is in the process of rolling out several new updates to our Total Rewards package in 2022. I can understand the feeling of uncertainty about the future, especially with the number of changes we've seen over the past couple of years. I believe we have a strong vision for where we're going and am excited to see how it evolves. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts - best of luck in your future endeavors! - Cara Barry, C&C Director

Pros

- Strong "walking the walk" ethic of really treating your employees well and giving them enrichment and autonomy. - Came to work every day energized and engaged for highly complex, rewarding work with great people! - Great opportunity to seriously level up your skills, especially on the mighty ugc team I was on. - Genuine, honest, humble (now) and seriously talented coworkers and a truly lofty mission that always kept me motivated. - A generally strong adjustment to fully-remote culture amid uncertainty and a great new generation of leaders.

Cons

- Previous Engineering leaders had rather poor soft skills and consistently made me feel looked down upon and inadequate while trying to do everything themselves (not always well). My rating would have been much lower in the past. - Cultivated a "clique" of Engineers in the old SF office that hurt morale for MV employees, affected opportunities to work on high-visibility projects and reduced chances for promotion. - Poor managing of expectations around career advancement. - Some amount of knowledge/product "siloing". - Product and Design can be disorganized and lack cohesive vision.
