Twitter is the new Amazon - Read before you join a toxic workplace

If you’re thinking about joining Twitter Eng/Product/Design please make sure you chat with someone who works in that team, especially product, eng and design. There are multiple teams with highly toxic environment on consumer side, be advised. Of course, people have different points of view and experiences not all teams are made equal, so I’d recommend doing research about your future team if you plan to join. This place destroyed my hope in humanity. Few things I saw in my 3 months here: - Finger pointing culture - you will be blamed for everything the company is doing wrong; - Leadership wants to solve problems without listening first; - C-level crying in all hands meeting; - Recruiters constantly ghost top candidates with no reason; - Constantly seen people throwing others under the bus; - Multiple cases of people swarming slack with cases of racism, bullying and unethical work relations - they are quickly silenced; - Want a performance culture but have no clue what that means - people are just resting and vesting; - Lots of really incompetent leaders; - Multiple delays and changes on evaluation process with disjointed comms; - Multiple people clearly up-leveled artificially to match the market; - On top pay is low. Look at recent media articles for details on how the culture is eroding. Internally we have lots of posts about the toxic culture, so I wanted to share this externally too. Twitter is the new Amazon without the business impact and performance.
