Betrayed and Disappointed — False Promises, No RSUs, Unfair Pay, and Toxic Politics - Principal Software Engineer Zynga Employee Review

• HR and management made multiple promises about RSUs and salary during hiring — none were honored. • Salaries are lower than what was offered, and there’s no transparency about the deductions or delays. • The environment is filled with too much cultural politics — favoritism and bias are common, and genuine work often goes unrecognized. • Rude and unprofessional behavior from managers has become the norm. • Constant false assurances and last-minute changes in policy make it impossible to trust the leadership. • Overall, it’s a toxic place that drains motivation and respect.
