Great space, but very poor leadership - Software Engineer Plaid Employee Review

Great WLB, Interesting technical work, good management and co-workers

Senior management should be more transparent with their plans

Emotionally intelligent coworkers, great perks, respectable leadership

Egregious expense abuse/weak oversight around spending. The money pumped into culture building and perks was a little much and it led to a baseline entitlement amongst employees, it was strange watching money flow so freely into nonessential spending. Call me old school. Also it was 2022 and layoffs were a threat so when the inevitable RIF happened it really felt like they prioritized the post grad entertainment budget over the salaries of hardworking employees.
