Bewertungen für Twitch

Pros

Meeting new people, improving me skils

Kontras

not serious unstable need to work every day

Pros

I loved the people I worked with at the IC level. Everyone on the ground level was super passionate or talented. The opportunities at the beginning sounded great. During the middle of the Amazon transition, it was easier to speak your thoughts and try new ideas without as much politics.

Kontras

Management sucks big time. Mid-level all the way up to heads/directors/vps. Lots of increasing office politics as more amazon or corporate experienced employees transferred over to the Twitch side. People actually doing the daily work were not well respected by people in higher positions, and lots of micromanagers in the marketing department. Really limited ambition and creativity- teams being disrespectful and left...

Hire managers who are actually good at managing people and teams. Treat employees with respect, and offer more opportunities for growth.

Kontras

there are too many politics sometimes

Pros

The food is great, the current product version is cool, the location of the SF office is near the trains, and the beer is tasty.

Kontras

Everyone is just hiring their friends, its all about Amazon (high volume and churn), people that work here are not from games and dont care about games, my manager has been on vacation 3 times this year, and doesnt care about me or my goals. As a matter of fact, her goals are destroying our business unit and we have turned over 50% of our division this year. Lastly, no one has worked here more than a year.. talk about...

Learn how to interview and train your people, get a clear understanding of the product, listen to the experts, hire real managers versus YES people.

Pros

- exciting market and product - great office - flexible work schedule

Kontras

- non-tech roles are paid poorly and taken for granted - non-tech workload is crushing - leadership is arrogant

Rat an das Management

Remember what you are and are NOT an expert in. Avoid designing key company processes by committee (or based on what your last company did) and let your experts do their jobs.

Pros

Nice work environment with a strong emphasis on inclusivity and diversity. Awesome catered meals 3x a day. It's a product that people love and will likely continue to increase in popularity.

Kontras

Lack of opportunities for growth, both in terms of title and salary. Most of the employees who were instrumental in building the brand and beloved by the community have been let go, pushed out, or demoted, with new management bringing in lots of new hires from their former companies. As a result the culture has shifted away from being a place where every streamer knew someone on staff to more of a corporate vibe given...

Rat an das Management

Look at ways to help turn the existing staff who have contributed a lot to the brand into leaders, rather than constantly bringing in new leadership above them. This would ensure they have opportunities to grow, increase their revenue, and can maintain important bonds with the community they have worked so closely with.

Pros

I have been an Engineering Manager at Twitch for over 2 years. I’ve had a long career and I can now say that this is one of the most enjoyable work experiences I have ever had. Why? The people are passionate about the product, focusing on success of both creators and viewers. People have the best intentions here, collaborate and pitch in across teams to get stuff done and don’t just think about what’s in it for me....

Kontras

Need more cross org shared dev processes and support. It’s easy to gain weight.

Rat an das Management

Continue working to bring more cross org alignment. Solicit input from directors and managers for company wide process changes.
