Not a place of trust

Pros

Some colleagues, other than that there is only contras. If you want to experience and work with 90s logic/technologies then this is the place to be.

Cons

- Team managers are untrained and immature. They are not really knowledgeable and are involved in killing the culture. - Riddled with politics (if you are coloured, then they will have a go at you at some point for sure!). - Nobody trusts each other. - Tech teams/developers are stuck with old useless framework. - Everybody speaks behind other's backs and the entire experience is so bad. - New joinees are bullied almost always (if you are of south asian origin!). I don't even know why this place is called one of the best places to work.

Don’t Believe the Hype

Pros

My Co-workers are amazing. Unfortunately so many have left and more are planning to.

Cons

Another review said it best. Soul-crushing! Nit picky good ole boys club. If you’re not part of the old regime, life will be hard. If you know the right people, you can pretty much do whatever you want. What they call feedback is a never ending barrage of criticism. You might get a “good job, now let’s talk about every little nuance that you could improve.”

New management not aligned with employee first culture

Pros

Most of the people you work with are friendly and eager to help.

Cons

A lot of the management has been changed in the last 1 to 2 years. Several old oracle managers. There is no value placed on work life balance, the management is very passive aggressive and the management culture is very cut throat and toxic. All of the focus is on profit magins and none of the statements about valuing employees or company culture focused on people seem genuine.
