Good product, rigid culture - Software Engineer Fivetran Employee Review

- Excellent Product - Visionary Founder - Awesome Culture

- Competitive Market - Remote Work Flexibility

Product itself is solid and works well in its space Some smart, talented people at the IC level

Management quality is inconsistent at best, some managers lacked basic managerial skills and created a stressful, unproductive team dynamic. I can only speak for my department but culture has shifted from collaborative to highly individualistic; siloed thinking is now the norm. Directors and senior leadership are largely disconnected from ICs feedback goes nowhere and decisions often feel top-down without real input from the people doing the work. Career growth paths are unclear or nonexistent; promotions seem arbitrary and opportunities are hard to come by.
