Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I’m sorry to hear your tenure did not end on a positive note. While we always try to live up to our operating principles and values, we sometimes fall short. I hope you were able to share your experience and perspectives during your exit interview with our People Operations team. I wish you all the best! Best, Dan Burton

Thank you for sharing your perspective. We appreciate your recognition of the strengths the company had before this year and the dedication of team members during challenging times. As we shape our 2026 strategy, we’re carefully evaluating how we allocate resources to ensure organizational success, identifying where to invest and how to utilize those resources most effectively, all guided by a clear and focused plan. Your feedback is helpful, and we will continue to communicate updates as progress is made. -Ben Albert

Pros

Great Talent & Culture: The people here are highly capable, collaborative, and committed to helping each other succeed. The partnership between onshore and offshore teams works well and is a real strength. There’s a culture of grit and stability that has helped the company navigate multiple major transitions over the years. Mission-Critical Engineering: The work involves complex data infrastructure that requires deep technical expertise. It can be demanding, but seeing these systems run successfully and support real-world operations is consistently rewarding.

Cons

Wage Compression and Retention Risk: Compensation for tenured and high-performing staff has not kept pace with the market for specialized data engineering and support leadership. In practice, tenure can feel undervalued or even penalized. This creates risk around losing institutional knowledge and operational continuity. Stagnant Career Progression: Contrary to stated expectations, strong performance ratings do not consistently translate into meaningful, market-aligned compensation growth. The process of how compensation is benchmarked lacks clarity in practice, obscuring how compensation decisions are made and what is required to advance.
