Free Lunch, but at What Cost? - Staff Engineer bei Checkout.com: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Leadership loves to boast about high attrition at All Hands—yikes! Frequent leadership changes and re-orgs leave teams goal-less for quarters on end. The main task? Cleaning up the mess left by former employees, now with a fancy name—cost optimization. Promised bonuses to curb attrition? Spoiler: No one was paid the promised amount. Layoffs happen quietly to avoid making waves. Performance Improvement Plans (PIPs) are a thinly veiled push to get you to quit. Work-life balance for parents? Not here. Managers oversee every tiny detail of your workday. Special software monitors your daily activity, all in the name of "security." Managers enforce a strict 3-day office policy and report attendance to leadership. Leaders have the autonomy to ostracize at will. Rampant discrimination and harassment complaints with little support for foreign employees. Got a great idea but you are from different ethnic background? Expect to be sidelined. Diversity initiatives are just marketing fluff.
