Work-life balance can be a bit of a mixed bag
Pros: I appreciate the flexibility of the hybrid work model. As a Software Engineer in the San Jose office, I've found it easier to handle personal stuff compared to fully onsite jobs. Some teams are good about protecting people's time, so you can mostly stick to normal hours.
Cons: Work-life balance here often feels tough, especially when we're crunching on new data management solutions. It's not uncommon to work more than 40 hours a week, and sometimes it feels like leadership expects it. This can be draining.
Advice to Management: Management should really try to protect teams from scope creep and unrealistic deadlines. It impacts the Software Engineer teams' ability to maintain a healthy work-life balance when trying to deliver on enterprise storage solutions.

Decent Pay, Benefits Could Be Better
Pros: The base salary for a Software Engineer here is quite competitive in the San Jose, CA office. The annual bonus structure is also decent, usually hits expectations, which is good for financial planning. They do offer a 401k match, which is a definite plus.
Cons: The health insurance options aren't the best; premiums feel a bit high for what you get. Stock refreshers aren't as generous as I've seen at other data management companies. Vacation time starts okay, but doesn't really scale up much initially.
Advice to Management: Look into enhancing the health benefits and consider more aggressive stock refreshers to retain top talent, especially for senior data management engineers.

Good team leads, but executive leadership needs work
Pros: My immediate manager was awesome. They really advocated for our team, especially on complex data management projects. There's good remote work flexibility too, which is a big plus for a growing tech company.
Cons: The higher-up leadership changes a lot, which makes getting a consistent vision tough. As a Senior Software Engineer, I felt the direction for new initiatives in cybersecurity software could be clearer. Communication from the top felt a bit scattered sometimes.
Advice to Management: Focus on more consistent communication from executive leadership. A clearer, more stable roadmap for new product development would help everyone.
