Worst Company to work for

Pros

Start up company, with good location, used to be really good place to work, but they managed to get from bad to worst over the last 2 years you will get ahead very fast if you are a liar, rude, and ignorant.

Cons

Hiring the wrong people for the wrong position, for example the VP of people and culture doesn't know how to deal with people in the first place, and have and attitude issue so she successfully destroyed our last bit of hope in having a good environment at work. The place is nearly a prison, you are not allowed to even talk to your colleague without being accused of being unproductive despite of your performance and results, if an old co-worker passed by to say hello he/she might get expelled from the company. When it comes to the operational company relation, Cequens managed to loose important strategic alliances within the last 2 years due to bad management decisions and relaying on bad managers who did not deliver appropriate results

Pros

Salary Learning curve they are trying to make the envirmonet better there's no more !

Cons

They have no process to rule the managers, so you're going to work according to your manager style, working to too late time and then you will find him sending you a message to tell you-you need to come early and finish some tasks before early morning! since joining and until leaving all I heard is we need to work more in order to catch the deadlines and when you ask about the deadline you'll find that there's no client and they are just love this style of working! you'll never know what's your manager exactly doing besides pushing you to finish the work.

Pros

Live based environment Good location Good offices Lots of technologies

Cons

Micromanagement - unfairness in all levels, don't expect being promoted unless you have good relationship with your manager. Even if you are working 24 hours per day - the company are targeting unqualified candidates in all levels, technical, managers, hr,... - Cequens is famous of BIG titles that you will never hear about anywhere, unless you have 20 years of experience to earn that title in a normal place, but in Cequens you will get it easier than your imagination. Just keep in mind to have good relationship with your manager ;) - Don't expect too much in learning or using new technologies. Some day you will be just a technical support guy as they are not willing to use new technologies or upgrade their infrastructure. - Bad attitude is very common there. - You will waste your time and energy trying to deal with unclean thoughts and environment. And don't wonder if you became aggressive due to the pressures you are being in while dealing with people there. - Unprofessional management. - No real measurements for your efforts due to weak and unclear objectives - no career path. No guidance. - Sometimes you will be asked for the time you took in toilet! And asked what were you doing there!! - if you have issues with your manager, don't expect anyone to help you. Whether you deal with him or resign - Sometimes you will realize that you are back in time to years of the faculty or may be school time due to some people's small minds!! - Again, unqualified people in all levels
