Think twice before signing that offer - it’s going downhill fast

Pros

1 Compensation’s alright if you push hard during the offer stage; 2 A few talented folks doing solid work despite the noise; 3 Some tech teams manage to stay out of the worst of it.

Cons

1 Leadership shifts priorities constantly. Targets change every few weeks, then you’re blamed for missing them; 2 Layoffs are passed off as “reorgs.” No communication, no heads-up, you just notice someone’s Slack access is gone; 3 Micromanagement is everywhere and a regular tool of incompetent middle managers; 4 The “open feedback culture” is bull. If you speak up, you get a target on you, or you get ignored if you are lucky and junior enough; 5 Stay away from some teams, they're political, cliquey, and draining. 6 Canadian employees get a worse deal compared to the US. The gap is obvious and ignored. The overall vibe has changed, morale’s low, trust is gone, and more people are leaving or looking. Wouldn’t be surprised if the Glassdoor rating drops soon.

Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective - we are genuinely grateful. In the spirit of being objective and transparent, I think it is important to share some facts regarding the views you have shared. First, our talent retention rates are well above industry benchmarks at 95.4%. We survey employees twice a year and those data reveal a broadly optimistic team who regularly praise our collaborative and flexible environment. Second, with respect to priorities, we have a well-established and broadly published 3-year strategy, 1-year goals that support that strategy, and 90 day goals to focus short-term activities. We report against these goals individually in our town halls on a monthly basis. None of the goals have changed since we set them at the start of the year, and if individuals have questions, we address them openly to ensure our global team is aligned. Third, it is true that we have had to eliminate some roles. We often do not publicize their names and positions broadly out of respect for the individual’s privacy. We take care to inform the people that work most closely with that person. Losing a team member can create feelings of loss, frustration and even fear - and taking care of all team members is important. Given your feedback, we will reconsider that approach. Finally, we make active efforts to pay our people competitively based on the value they deliver and where they live. We conduct annual benchmarks and make adjustments as needed to ensure we stay competitive. Our retention rate is a measure we track to keep us honest on this front. I’m sorry that you don’t feel comfortable openly sharing feedback. Many employees do share, on a regular basis, and that feedback is a regular topic of conversation at the executive team level. I’m unaware of any employee who has been targeted for retribution for speaking their mind and frankly we have a zero-tolerance mentality if that were to happen. I want to reiterate my gratitude for your willingness to offer your perspectives here and would welcome a 1-1 conversation if you are willing to talk. ~Kerry Field, Chief People Officer

Pros

The work at Opensignal is interesting and engaging and they compensate well. I most appreciate the work-life balance and the transparency from senior management regarding the status and progress of the company.

Cons

There have been several periods of mergers and acquisitions which the company has been through. There are many positives that come with each, but the main issue that I run into is a lack of ownership or direction for certain initiatives, particularly when they span business units.

Thank you for your feedback! We're thrilled to hear that you find your role and the company's work engaging—we find it exciting too! We are committed to providing our employees with an excellent work-life balance through our Flex PTO policy and other benefits, and we're glad to see this is valued. Like any growing company, we experience periods of adjustment, particularly with integrations from mergers and acquisitions, as we review our goals and bring teams together. If you have questions about direction or ownership, please ask your manager or we have a slack channel that was established for exactly this reason called ‘who owns this’. It has really helped new employees (and tenured!) find answers more easily.
