Very Different Work Environment

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Free food all day long! Great benefits and a very fast-paced environment. Employees are given freedom and they have flexibility. Management is not in your face all the time but they expect you to come up with the goods. If "they" like you then you're set.

Cons

Be careful because if you make one false step you will be put out on your ear and you are shunned for life. I know a few folks that did the wrong thing and they paid for it with their reputations. Forget references. Loyalty is #1 at this company but if Management expects loyalty they have to give an employee a reason to stay. Salaries are not competitive.

Pros

It's a ok place to work. They provided 3 month trainings before you actually start, and you have free food.

Cons

Sometimes you must work long hours, it's up to you. The longer you work, the more they like you. it seems.

Great place for job stability, visa application if you're an immigrant. Mobility somewhat limited

Business Outlook

Pros

Company is willing to invest in resources and training for its employees and offers great networking opportunities and access to the terminal and seminars.

Cons

At the time, much of the technology was proprietary and you develop software / applications that are not as portable. However, in recent years, the company has been getting rid of their legacy code and modernizing their technology infrastructure. Big-brother watching with the badge-out and daily logs and tracking system.
