I’ve been getting reachouts from OfferUp Engineering about growing teams and opportunities. Who has worked there? Friendly towards women? From Linkedin it looks like a lot of former Amazon and no HR.
Culture is back on the rise. Eng dept is fun and stable for the most part. Lots of work to do. Startup culture.
You did not realize 70% eng attrition rate? And two pm director recently lost all their reports? (Yes they all quit)
Why did they all quit?
What are they doing to differentiate? They had their niche, but lack of vision has made OfferUp less of a snowflake. Unless they give you a huge salary I’d pass
There are a lot of ex-Amazon and ex-Microsoft employees here (similar to most startups in the area), so take that as you wish. I very much enjoy working here and our culture makes me want to actually come in to work each day. While I can’t speak for the women beginners, the two women engineers on my team seem to love it here. I’d recommend taking the interview and seeing it for yourself! DM me if you’d like more specific info. Happy to provide as unbiased answers as possible.
I’d recommend doing a lot of research and digging deep if you choose to interview. There’s been quite a bit of turnover and turmoil in 2019 and you’ll want to feel comfortable that it has settled down. Also, while the company has a ton of Ex-Amazon leaders they are old school Amazon where it’s a bit rough around the edges. Do your due diligence!
Leadership is a hot mess and majority of eng leadership is sexist. True no HR
lol. You would better to check other threads related with offerup. Is there any one got so many offerup employees reply immediately? It is very clear fake replies. Shame about it.
@op. If friendly toward women is important to you, I suggest you not go. I have witness female got harassed and our leadership team just trash her and protect the manager. If you need more information, pin me directly.
High attrition, layoff and leetcode sums up offerup engineering at this stage
Stay away especially the engineering department. Too many harassment reports against the managers. HR is nonexistent. OfferUp is desperate to hire engineers, since insane amount of refer bonus is handed. They will do anything for people to join them.
