Thank you for your review. We are not sure that it this one is for Finder as we do not have any software developers in New Zealand. As our CTO, I personally find micro management to be incredibly disempowering and it ultimately leads to poorer quality outcomes. I’m not a fan. I prefer instead to align on what our goals are and strive to let squads achieve them as autonomously as possible. We agree on the outcomes and are flexible on the process to get there and not the other way around. Therefore, while the CPO and I are ultimately accountable for delivery, season planning, sprint planning, retrospectives, and other prioritisation conversations are the responsibility of the engineering lead, principal engineer, product manager and designer of the group in service to the delivery of their goals.

Thank you for sharing your experience and for being part of the Finder team. I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the strong sense of community that we deeply value here. Our people truly are what make Finder special, and we’re proud of the friendships and support networks that extend beyond the workplace. We understand and acknowledge the challenges we've faced recently. The decision to restructure was not taken lightly, but ultimately necessary for the long-term stability and growth. We remain committed to supporting our people and strengthening our culture as we move forward. Wishing you all the best in your future endeavours, and thank you again for your contributions to Finder. Frank

Thank you for taking the time to review your experience at Finder, we value each review that we receive. Unfortunately, we do not have a finance team based in the US which makes it challenging for us to contextualize your feedback. I would love to talk to you more offline to understand more about your experience if you would like to reach out to me. Thanks Zak Ali
