Pros
- Location - Good for graduates (on paper) - Nice canteen - Great people - Easy work/life balance (nobody really cares about your time)
Cons
- Lack of vision - Lack of roadmap - Lack of leaders - Lack of initiative - Lack of trust - Lack of honesty - Lack of processes - Lack of tools - Lack of certainty Everything advocated in slides, policies and useless "All-Hands Open Forums" with 200+ people just afraid to share their opinions, is promptly contradicted by day to day actions. HR is a disaster: always late, always wrong, always misleading. Not sure if they serve the rest of the company or themselves. All relevant decisions are taken overseas: local managers are more keen about recording hours than producing anything real or taking responsibilities. It is not clear if the claimed "research activity" is a real thing, or just time spent googling on technology fundamentals (when it is possible) considering the embarrassing low bar during the hiring process Sometimes it feels like it is more important you are there, just counting as "one more", rather than what you learn or produce (no metrics on productivity or KPIs have been ever disclosed) Engineering quality is not even comprehended, the mantra is "release anything to show something" Any ambition on personal and professional growth will be killed by an equalization toward mediocrity: talents and professionals leaves, graduates feels endorsed (that's why is good for them) It's a shame, really. If you are looking for a career change/boost, stay away.
