Great Company Except for Engineering Team - Software Engineer Koddi Employee Review

Pros The team celebrates client wins loudly and specifically, and that energy is genuine across levels and functions. The mission has real pull — people broadly believe Koddi is the right company at the right moment in commerce media. Leadership is unusually transparent about its own gaps, which creates room for honesty throughout the organization. Peer recognition is specific and frequent, suggesting people actually see and value each other's contributions.

Capacity is the most consistent pain signal — good people are absorbing volume that prevents them from doing their best work. The pace of AI-driven change is creating real stress, with expectations landing as pressure rather than clarity. Internal coordination delays are the bottleneck that clients end up feeling directly. Priority clarity holds when things are calm but breaks down under load, leaving teams chasing alignment instead of executing.

Teaches you exactly what a toxic work environment looks like.

The Koddi team is particularly toxic, led by senior members with massive egos who treat juniors with utter disrespect. There is an "attitude" among certain seniors who lack basic interpersonal skills and have even resorted to cussing out team members. Accountability is non-existent at the senior level; they dump "dumb work" on Juniors to avoid their own responsibilities and then blame them when things go wrong. Coming on to The cohort program, It is designed to stress out new hires rather than train them, and the mentorship on the Engineering team is the worst I’ve seen in the industry.
