the ELT changes have made working here dreadful. There is zero communication from engineering leadership, and with the latest 'restructuring', there is even less.
This company purely pushes AI now, and tho I do not believe most jobs should be replaced by AI, our ELT would at the very least make decisions and be able to communicate them if they were AI.
The pay is low. Base is low but alright, but there are no bonuses, no RSUs.
Their yearly pay increases are based on a 'weighted' scale based on your performance, where earning a 5/5 is supposed to be achievable, but if you talk to managers it's almost unheard of. The weight keeps you very close to 3% increase until you are past the middle point of your band, then it is used as a reason to reduce your %. The math is roughly that it would take 12 years to get from the bottom of your bracket to the top.
If you're an engineer once you hit Senior 2 here you need to find a different job if you want to make more $, the bands for every higher level are the same as senior 2, so don't expect to progress.
