What is the culture like at yahoo? Is it team dependent? How is the promo there, is it like perf at Google? How long does it take to get promotions on average? new TC, yoe: 170k, 3
I want yahoo so bad. I heard WLB is amazing and ng TC is better than mine currently.
Maybe you can fix the feed algo that keeps showing me celebrity gossip no matter how many times I ask it to stop
funny, i ask for more celebrity gossip and instead get thoughtful, compelling news stories that both inform and enlighten me .... go figure.
Yahoo is awesome, yahoo beats Albertsons
Albertsons has a higher revenue than tesla, so yahoo > tesla isn't bad :)
Screw you nothing beats Albertsons. Stop spewing blasphemy and treachery!
Google to Yahoo? Devolution?
No, you have to remember that some managers and teams at Google are not great. Company names don't matter to me compared to WLB and TC. The reality of working at Google differs a lot from what people on Blind say.
I was mostly happy at yahoo. Culture is very US-centric but overall good. The biggest problem is the lack of stability - Y is now privately owned by a PE and is being restructured for possible sale of pieces. There was also heavy attrition. However, it was doing finantially better on 2021. Can't say how things are going now though. Re promos, they're budget and business needs based. At the lower levels (<4) it's probably 2-3 years. Above that, depends on your situation.
Thanks for responding, would you say the work itself is interesting? Also is there a performance review bi yearly or yearly?
Perf reviews twice a year. The mid year one is pretty lightweight. You only get a rating at year end
Team dependent but mostly WLB is very good. Performance review once a year, and a light weight one around June/July. I recommend, but there will be uncertainty over its future. However, short to medium term safer than many other tech companies in this climate
Short to medium term being how many years? What makes yahoo's future uncertain?
Owned by Apollo who’ll want a return, may sell the company in pieces which brings uncertainty. I survived many acquisitions @ yahoo. I would still recommend
I love it great WLB. Yearly raises
@Yahoo, can you dm me for a referral? I ran out of chats
