Used to be a good company - Anonymous employee CQL Employee Review

Great mentorship from tech leads and other developers, culture that values continuous learning and growth, and exciting projects to work on.

Context switching between projects can be challenging at times. Some projects have tight deadlines.

CQL is not an organization for beginners or those content with simply meeting the minimum requirements. It’s a place that demands excellence, built and led by professionals who have spent years mastering their craft. The leadership team stands out because they’ve done the work themselves—and, in many cases, continue to do so. This is a workplace for high performers. Our team consists of individuals who take pride in their work, view it as their craft, and approach each day with a passion for going above and beyond. The high standards here are reinforced by strong processes and clear expectations. CQL is not for everyone, and some Glassdoor reviews reflect that reality. However, what remains is a dedicated group of professionals who thrive in this environment. If you’re a career-minded individual who values high performance and refuses to settle for mediocrity, CQL could be the ideal place for you.

At CQL, it’s not uncommon to find your day packed with back-to-back meetings, leaving little room for downtime in between. This reflects the dynamic and fast-paced nature of the organization rather than a shortcoming. However, it’s important for prospective candidates to understand that success here requires adaptability. If you’re not accustomed to managing a high volume of meetings or navigating frequent context switching, you may find this environment challenging. That said, for those who thrive in a busy, high-energy setting, this could be an excellent fit.
