Layoffs happens all the time - Avis employé Software Developer Rangle.io

There are still a few genuinely smart developers around who haven’t drunk the Kool-Aid. You’ll be fine if you toe the line, keep your head down, and never challenge the culture. Some of the tech is modern, and there are opportunities to work on projects — if you’re politically aligned.

The company culture is fully captured by DEI ideology. Promotions and influence are based more on identity and activist alignment than skill or experience. HR functions like an internal policing unit, and expressing fact-based, merit-driven opinions — even politely — will get you labeled as toxic. Leadership is more interested in optics than delivery. Actual high performance is treated with suspicion, especially if it upsets people who aren't pulling their weight. Slack is filled with political and social dogma, and even suggesting healthier food options or more efficient work habits can get you dragged. Management lacks spine and will throw you under the bus to protect the activist narrative. PTSD-level stress is real here — especially if you're not on board with the culture.

Good culture and lots of support for learning and growth
