Not great for individual contributors or women - Technical F5 Employee Review

Smart team-players who are disappearing every day. Meetings are long because people want to be 'visible' by asking questions for things they should know, or showing off their 'knowledge'. Management rewards those 'visible' people and calls them leaders, while the real workers are ignored and passed over for promotions. Older people are now being ignored while the focus is on bringing in junior employees. Ageism, I think it's called. Francois and his new senior staff are leading with sticks and constantly saying 'this is going to be a lot of hard work'. We were working hard before you got here. All old senior staff and VPs retired to 'spend more time with their families' that included kids who are off in college.
