Ancestry Environment Employee Reviews

Individual contributors do their best, some have become protective. Culture slowly changing to be more collective-focused rather than silos of ownership. But very slow going.

Review from Engineering Dept

Working from home is great

Team work aligned to vision and customer impact

There is a win/win team culture at the office. It makes it easier to manage through difficult situations, which are a part of work-life. I consider them my Ancestry family.

It's a really collaborative culture.

Review from Marketing Dept

Everyone is so willing to help. When I started I had help coming at me from every direction. Everything is so team-oriented that people go out of their way in order to make everyone feel valued and like their work matters and that it is making an impact.

Everyone loves the product & wants to make it the best product out there. People are kind and teams are close knit.

I enjoy camaraderie with my co-workers.

Very open and vibrant. Strong drive to excel

Review from Engineering Dept

The culture is broken cause of constant leadership turnover. A new one comes in and establishes culture and is out in 2 years.

Executives should consider valuing their employees as much as they value their shareholders; there is very little focus on employee morale and overall employee compensation and rewards

Some of the leadership are more political and toxic, cares more about image and are insecure

Review from Marketing Dept

Management don't care about the company's employees. At all. And until that changes, people will continue to be dissatisfied and the culture will stay as it is.

There are so many things at Ancestry which are broken.
