Sequoia Capital Reviews

Harassment 100% occurs at Sequoia. They are exceptionally good at hiding it and HR doesn't exist. Unless you count the person who has no background in HR doing the job. Management is old fashion and really rude.

It takes a certain type to work here. Sequoia must be your top priority with family as a lower priority. You will always struggle as a parent because this environment won't allow you to be good one. Sequoia expects you to consistently work 12+ hour days during the work week and working weekends is expected. A 60 hour work week isn't uncommon for the EA team. The environment is high pressure and high volume with the expectation that everything is on fire. The expectation is to do everything perfectly all the time. You're reminded often that performance is the only priority and you should feel lucky to be here. The EA turn over is very high. Half the team is fairly new at 1 year or less due to departures. There has been constant change at the EA leadership level prior to joining and has changed multiple times this year. I have never worked somewhere where culture and experiences is mentioned so much. But, nothing is improved. Having social events doesn't improve the culture. You would think they would know this by now.
