Their US compensation tiers are not well-calibrated.

Interviewed with a recruiter for a senior role and realized the same. On top of that, the recruiter couldn’t answer some questions I had about the role, nor would connect me with someone who could but wanted me to do a coding round first. Overall not good experience. Later learned anecdotally that work culture at Mozilla isn’t great. I love what Mozilla is trying to do, use Firefox as my primary browser, and wanted to contribute my time to supporting the company, but came away disappointed.

I've been working there a long time, there are valid complaints, but poor work culture isn't one I've normally heard. Of course it depends a lot on the specific manager, so I won't deny specific anecdotal experiences. But generally I'd say the work culture is quite healthy.

Yeah Mozilla is only a shell of what it once was. They need some fresh blood

Yeah wow, hard to keep up with the rest of big tech without stock compensation.

Their EU compensation is excellent. Nearly as good as FAANG.
