What are some of the best things about your team?
Irrespective of the failings of the management team the agents are great to work for.
Passionate, hard-working, domain experts, honest, great people.
Review from Engineering Dept
The rank and file are good people
Our team is highly passionate about family history and the team are experts in how we can improve products for customers.
The collaboration of ideas. The executives also have open office hours, so they are available for discussions on any work-related topic.
Most people outside of leadership roles and a few leaders are intelligent caring people
Review from Marketing Dept
At the team level Ancestry works well. Cross coordination and direction is where Ancestry is very lacking
Review from Engineering Dept
Shared passion for our products & customers.
Review from Marketing Dept
family like camaraderie that we have. No one feels the fear of speaking up and sharing an idea. The leadership does their best to be open minded and listen to all members of the team.
My team is FULL of great people who are overworked, underpaid, and undervalued.
Review from Marketing Dept
Curiosity, desire to learn & connect with the user, and in addition to being talented, generally being good people.
Smart intelligent people.
Review from Engineering Dept
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Very siloed organisation. Lots of turf wars
Before Covid, Ancestry didn't get what it takes to be a collaborative and inclusive company. But since it was walled garden, the attitude was go along or leave. With Covid, the broken culture is exacerbated. New leadership who should know better make it worse. Now, people just leave. In droves.
Communication is a little disorganized sometimes
