Unity Senior Technical Program Manager reviews

The company has been going through a tough period recently so there's a lot of changes going on, and with that a lot of uncertainty and confusion. For EMEA and APAC employees work hours can be long as most people need to collaborate with colleagues in the US and Canada. Overall I found it difficult to keep a good work / life balance due to regular meetings outside of my normal working hours. On the other hand, I had lots of flexibility during the day and my manager has always been very supportive and caring.

- Salaries were wildly different even in the same salary band with no explanation from HR or management (I did try to get one when I found out). - A lot of internal politics, a lot of managers with visions of products they abandoned as soon as they got a better position, which left their teams to deal with unsuccessful projects that eventually got scrapped - Not a lot of focus on core product or what made Unity successful, a lot of hype chasing with vague ideas and visions of the next new thing that never really materializes - I was part of one of the 2022 layoffs. The company attempted to "rehome" us. They claimed around 50% were rehomed, but any interview with internal teams was like interviewing as an external applicant. None of the hiring managers looked at actual work I had done in the company, and after two months(!) of stalling, I was told nobody could use me. The "rehoming" experience felt so much worse than being laid off, I truly felt disrespected on a personal level due to the vague feedback and the very long timeline that kept me hoping/on the hook. I never want to work here again after that treatment.
