Toxic Company - Software Engineer Midas (Turkey) Employee Review

* Good compensation compared to the market * Everyone is encouraged to speak up, but in practice this rarely leads to meaningful impact or change

* Professional workflows across product, engineering, and design are almost non-existent * All teams (from design, product to engineering) frequently talk about “standards,” yet there is no shared understanding of how those standards can actually be applied * A roadmap exists, but execution is driven by constant rushing rather than structured planning * Planning and estimation are largely absent, making delivery chaotic and unsustainable * Continuous pressure to deliver leaves no space to follow best practices * Burnout is widespread across teams * Leadership lacks a clear, concrete long-term vision; many statements feel abstract and disconnected from execution * Engineering management is heavily focused on AI without sufficient control or strategy * Existing weak codebases are becoming increasingly unmanageable due to uncontrolled AI-driven integrations

Great company with great people mostly, Business was booming when I worked there.

Bad culture, long hours are expected, you need people skills to stay even if you are good at your job.
