great place - Avis employé Director Labelbox

Great culture, fun environment, always feel good about showing up to work.

Nothing was significantly bothersome here.

Strong peers at the IC level who are capable, thoughtful, and committed to doing good work

The biggest issue is leadership. In my experience, middle management and executive leadership create more friction than clarity. Projects often become slower and more complicated because of unclear direction, shifting priorities, and layers of process that do not appear to improve outcomes. There is a serious lack of strategic vision, especially around AI. The company talks about important opportunities, but the execution does not match the ambition. Much of the burden falls on deployed engineers and ICs, while leadership does not provide the clarity, ownership, or support needed to make the work successful. The culture also feels unhealthy. Work-life balance is poor, expectations are often unreasonable, and blame tends to move downward. Employees can feel disposable rather than valued, and leadership does not seem meaningfully concerned about churn or morale. I would strongly encourage anyone considering an offer to speak privately with current or former employees first. My experience has aligned closely with many of the negative reviews I read before joining.
