All the resources in the world but terrible management - Engineer Preferred Networks Employee Review

A lot is team dependent, hit and miss. Mostly terrible management: no useful guidance or project decisions (often due to a lack of technical knowledge), terrible HR decisions and the insistence of recruiting for management internally even when there were no suitable candidates, zero management education, no recognition for anything - even world class achievements, no reflection or even recognition of mistakes, no checks and balances - if you are in a good team with a capable manager, you'll have a blast, if not, get a taste of hell. Probably a bit of a cultural issue: hero worship. Certain accomplishments of the distant past are glorified and part of the culture but can't replace actual accomplishments in the present. Some people are almost worshiped and sacrosanct which leads to many problems and misunderstandings. Probably worst of all are the mysterious opaque evaluations without any feedback. That also means that your compensation will likely not change a lot if at all (unless you are straight out of university). Zero career development, no opportunities. If your project doesn't help you improve your CV, there's nothing you can gain career wise, unless chance strikes or you get recruited for your dream position straight away. There's no structured way for career development. If you are not a Japanese speaker, think twice before even applying. All in all, if I had to rate the company during the first 1-2 years, I'd give them 5 stars, the way they turned out, what I have seen during my tenure there, it pains me to do that but 1 star is still too much.
