Poor work-life balance - Software Engineer Candescent Employee Review

Candescent has a strong, people‑first culture and is in an exciting growth and build phase, offering real opportunities to make an impact. Employees feel valued, heard, and supported, and the company is actively building a connected culture that brings people together. The work is purposeful, focused on building modern digital banking solutions that matter.

It has been a great company so far and it is a fast-paced environment.

No cohesion. The company used to be a bottom-up company that has transitioned to a top down culture. Problem is we have too many new people at the top who don't understand our business and don't know how to balance change with keeping the legacy business going. Also, management just straight up lies to our faces constantly. We also can never get any questions answered except for the softest of softball questions.
