Good fun and exciting but chaotic - Support Engineer Duco Employee Review

It used to be a flat company where conversations ran freely, but as it grows it's becoming stratified and many conversations are now "for management only" Career progression is vague and plans for advancement are always subject to sudden change or disappearance when the next big strategic plan comes along There is genuinely budget for things like training and conferences, and an expectation to spend it, but nobody really knows who should be spending it or how so it's quite hard to actually get the cash out. Much of the tech is very cloud-native best-practice but lots of the company structure and processes aren't. NIH syndrome is falling but still very much there - if you make it to the conferences but not to the management meetings you can end up frustratedly unable to advance a case for industry best-practice to anybody.
