Amadeus reviews

I worked at Les Templiers and throughout my time there, I've seen almost all departments, except from Hotel, however I had a few good colleagues there where we could share our experiences. It was a frustrating experience for me since I was moved from one team to another every 6 months because of "budget cuts", meaning that I was a newcomer several times there. The good aspect I suppose is that in the end I knew almost everyone in Les Templiers since I worked with so many people...ok thats a good thing, not Cons :) Projects: Hmm... not particularly interesting (at least for me I have 10 years of experience and worked with interesting domains), especially when you deal with the most terrible and spaghetti code of 50,000 lines contained in each class. People seem that they have absolutely no clue about design patterns and once when I presented a factory pattern, they looked at me as if If I committed a crime... They asked me "what is the point of creating a new small class which only has a few methods?". "We don't create new classes here just for the sake of creating them and we definitely don't allow developers to create pointers!"...What? you are using C++ and its not allowed to create pointers? What is the point of using C++ then? Later on I found out that the framework they created was just a horrible piece of junk that even the most senior Amadeus staff developers hated it !! Higher management has lately invented the word Agile Scrum and they think that the technical-debt will disappear magically. I don't blame them. They are fashion victims. If you ask any decent developer will tell you in the end that it will still be a "PTR-Driven developement". I stole this term from a really good engineer that I worked and he was recently fired by his senior manager (its she, in fact, will call here Madame "She" for the time-being)...will get into that senior manager problem a bit further.. Attitude: There is a serious bad attitude there. Very very serious.. It basically maintains a toxic environment and the opposite. After a while you become toxic as well. You become unsociable, unhelpful an all the un...s. The problem starts from the head. The Senior is toxic enough to create a clique of toxic trusted team leads who will do whatever it takes to maintain psychological fear, which is hidden behind their friendly faces. The team leads will have 2-3 trusted staff devs, some of them have a big nose about themselves and their skills. <= These are the ones you need to watch out for ..be very-very careful. Backstabbers, evil and manager-wannabees, boot-lickers and they adore telling you off for every single thing. A small story now, I'd like to share :).... One day in the department of Senior "She" in Les Templiers, the team leader asked me for a personal meeting. He announced to me that unfortunately because of budget cuts I had to be transferred internally to another team within the same department. Don't worry he said.. its only because of cuts Madam "She" is doing. **I am personally very happy about your performance**. So, I went off to my 3rd new team, along with another fine engineer. Two months passed and my mission was terminated again for budget cuts and performance issues.. When the opinion of the team lead was asked again by the senior ... he back stabbed and lied that there was indeed a performance issue. So careful. Backstabbers are everywhere there. Senior managers: In the department of "She" I think that there is already a sense of dictatorship. She actually dictates and there is a general feeling that she hates foreigners as well.
