Is a big raise worth it if the culture is unknown. I have been burned once by choosing money over environment and I am trying not to repeat that mistake. How do you evaluate risk when you cannot really know.

I can handle a lot if the money is good. Of course I would love a good work environment, but like you said, it's a risk and you can't really know for sure. Who knows, it could be fantastic?

It is or would be for me. I can tolerate a lot for the right price. I do my best to get a feel for culture by reading reviews and paying attention to the climate when I'm interviewing, but there's no real way to know until you actually work there. Unless there were glaring red flags during the interview process, I'm taking the money every time.

Hi Fishes,
I recently got shortlisted for a Product Manager position at Tracxn. There’s also an IPO coming up which is the reason I had applied.
But I have read some horrifying reviews about the company on Glassdoor, indeed and other forums.

I’m wondering whether it’s worth going through the interview process and I’d also like to hear opinions from anyone who has worked with the company or is aware of the company culture.

Thanks.

What is the culture like, type of work and reputation of Capco in the Data & Analytics space?

I have some good ex colleagues who moved over there and also looked up on LinkedIn and see lots of seemingly smart and accomplished people in their D&A team in the UK.

I'll ask my ex colleagues too, but wanted to see if people here have any opinion or information on this too.

TIA

How do you all deal with the guilt of leaving a comany/ team? I have been working at Microsoft for 1 year now, and seriously considering moving. I find the code base to be very legacy and I mostly work on obscure bugs that I spend so much time on, mostly due to navigating this large code base and not having much docs to refer to. Hence I find the job slightly unsatisfying, and that I could learn more elsewhere. However, I love the wlb, the team and company culture. The guilt stops my applying.
