Grapevine Culture
Well I've heard something about Grapevines culture, employees carry there laptop even when they hangout with friends.
Seems like prod issues are inevitable. ;)
I find it amusing that everyone I see on grapevine worries about :
Culture - when thinking of a job change Money - when deciding to take a specific job Culture - after joining the company
It seem culture matters most. Salary is transient. It pays the bills. Yet there’s no great way to learn about culture of a company. Even grapevine only gives you a Salary tab.
Is this a gap and need in the market ?
I don't see any product that can be made on it, rather existing products can have culture section and acceptance of more people into it.
But again, culture is really very subjective in general. Org might have a culture defined, but it does come down to managers and your team on how well that culture is nurtured.
I think, instead of culture in org as the Metric, one should also see if the teammates and the manager of the team you would join seems fun to you. Do you like being part of that team? Do they try to uplift you, would they take a bullet for you?
In my personal experience and from what I have heard, these are the teams, most people enjoy being in. These are the teams you give your best and above, bcoz you want your team to succeed!
This is great insight
Yes but i also feel its much harder to solve. Two different teams can have conflicting views of culture depending on their work load, manager and peers. Also i have noticed it depends on where i’ve worked before. Say, i worked a job which was 14 hrs a day and low pay and now my current job is 12 hrs with better money. So for me its great but for someone who’s always worked balanced 8-9 hrs this is shit. Not sure how one would define culture parameters
This is excellent.
An easy metric thats a blend of both salary & culture is voluntary attrition.
Culture almost always varies within large orgs. No two teams will have the same culture so no point really. Best you can do is find someone from the exact team to understand more about everything. Its all a crapshoot otherwise

In India, particularly in Bengaluru.
Work here means problem they are solving. Salary includes ctc, perks and stocks. Culture here means work-life balance.
Grapevine seems to be leaning towards tech related roles and organization, which is good but it would be great if people from other domains also talked about their companies.

I am honestly just furious at the pay difference between the salary of an sde and a pm. Both work just as hard.
