Tinder Engineering Department Employee Reviews
Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
Great work environment, not too fast paced and the people are really great as-well as the benefits
Review from Engineering Dept
Its probably the best place I've worked thus far and I continue to enjoy it.
Review from Engineering Dept
Net positive since I've started but lately trending neutral to negative.
Review from Engineering Dept
What do you like best about the leadership team?
They really care about the company's success
Review from Engineering Dept
I think the leadership team is pretty transparent to the employees.
Review from Engineering Dept
They understand the target audience
Review from Engineering Dept
Open communication, Clarity of execution plan and considering us as their valuable asset.
Review from Engineering Dept
My manager gives me a lot of flexibility to do projects the way that I want to do them and doesn't micromanage. He shields me from additional conversations that I don't need to be a part of.
Review from Engineering Dept
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Focusing less on stock price and focusing more on customer and employee experience, stop doing stock buy backs unless they're being done for employee compensation
Review from Engineering Dept
Self awareness and honesty I think are skills the leadership team could improve. For instance, our engineering org, and the team i am on in particular, has very few women. And they are not treated fairly. Why does the leadership team think this is?
Review from Engineering Dept
The transparency is something we can improve a lot at also the communication
Review from Engineering Dept
Leadership needs to be better at: 1. Focusing on improving user experience rather than trying to monetize our users as much as possible 2. Be willing to take risks for innovation 3. Find a vision, and corral the team around it
Review from Engineering Dept
What is the best part about your compensation package?
It is competitive when considering other offers for my career
Review from Engineering Dept
I like the $125 commute reimbursement.
Review from Engineering Dept
Its what I wanted when I joined, and now as I grow it will only get better.
Review from Engineering Dept
Health insurance, salary and bonus. I miss when we had dinner in the office and coordinated catering from local small businesses.
Review from Engineering Dept
Base pay is roughly market rate for my position, maybe a bit below. However, RSU package is not great given the stock price recently.
Review from Engineering Dept
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
with the stock tanking, considering more RSU refreshing
Review from Engineering Dept
I feel undervalued as a human, and that no amount of money is worth putting up with the direct leadership team that I do here. I would feel better about my compensation if action was taken against managers that treat their teams incredibly poorly, instead of encouraging them.
Review from Engineering Dept
Being a remote employee I feel left out on various things and also, the perks like free lunches and other IRL events don't have a remote counter part
Review from Engineering Dept
since I joined the stocks had dropped a lot
Review from Engineering Dept
Stock price drop. Maybe can add some refresh to compensate the loss a bit
Review from Engineering Dept

Review from Engineering Dept
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
I have coworkers that intentionally block others for their own benefits, insult and raise their voices at their own team members, and management does nothing to discourage this, even promotes them to levels that require approvals from more than just their manager to keep them here at Tinder.
Review from Engineering Dept
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
The people are really great and there is alot of room to grow
Review from Engineering Dept
I like that I am able to work closely event with people from other team, and contribute not only within our team domain.
Review from Engineering Dept
almost everyone willing to offer help
Review from Engineering Dept
The culture is young and enthusiastic
Review from Engineering Dept
Interacting with people on other teams.
Review from Engineering Dept
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Please replace managers that encourage toxic culture here at Tinder. I have been told that "if I ever want to be promoted, that when it comes to my work life balance that work always needs to come first." My "performance" is relative to people that work till 2 AM every morning, and all weekend.
Review from Engineering Dept
Leadership needs to provide a vision that the majority of the company believes in.

The work benefits are great and I really like the issue that I get to work on
Review from Engineering Dept
Meet people and have lunch with them to chat about new things going on with them in their life or work.
Review from Engineering Dept
there are always some interesting projects there
Review from Engineering Dept
Getting things done and seeing good results
Review from Engineering Dept
Working on features with my team and occasionally collaborating with other teams
Review from Engineering Dept
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
For customers we're just focusing on extractive microtransactions rather than improving the app. For employees the soul of the company feels like its gone. Perks like lunch are just highschool cafeteria food, and social events don't feel the same as they used to.
Review from Engineering Dept
Management encourages a toxic work culture of 16 hour work days, blocks promotions, approves time off then forces us to work to meet their deadlines anyways, and then are protected by their leadership because they do a good job of meeting deadlines, so no action is taken when complaints are made.
Review from Engineering Dept
Im not convinced leadership on my team is aware of the problems we face. Additionally, I am not convinced they would do anything about the problems if they were aware based on their history.
Review from Engineering Dept
The future looks bleak at times
Review from Engineering Dept
Bottleneck at leadership level which has slowed down progress and reduced innovation. Leadership needs to give autonomy to people below them while giving a vision for the product.
