Pros

CS is a vibrant and dynamic company characterized by its youthful energy. The average age of employees is relatively young, fostering an atmosphere of solidarity and camaraderie among the staff. The company’s innovative product line presents a multitude of exciting challenges, keeping the work engaging and stimulating.

Cons

working at CS comes with significant pressure and a heavy workload, especially following the acquisitions of Heap and HotJar. The management's tendency to rush everything and push for rapid implementation, even for changes that ideally require two to three years and proper change management, creates a stressful environment. This haste often comes at the expense of employee well-being. Additionally, beyond the initial salary, there are few extra benefits. The meal vouchers have remained the same value for the past six years. While there is a relaxation area with games and a mental health tracking tool that allows for one to two psychological sessions per month, these measures are insufficient to genuinely improve employee welfare. More comprehensive and updated benefits are needed to better support the workforce.

Thank you very much for your review and valuable insight. The recent changes in the company have been challenging, but we can't let them affect the long-term employee well-being. We agree there's still work to be done. Your comment has been escalated.

Lack of maturity and lack of seriousness

Pros

Nice offices in Paris Nice annual event

Cons

- Too "sales-oriented" and not very "product/tech-oriented". Salesmen want "sexy" stuff, so many poor choices are made with a negative impact on the product and the teams. Sales-managers behave like heroes (no surprise, the CEO is a salesman himself). - Incredible despise for clients, as if they were all deeply ignorant regarding data related subjects. Do not go there if honesty is a value to you. - The "start-up spirit" is far behind and it has become a big place with lots of politics to handle if you want to get a promotion. Really. - And last thing that is my inner personal feeling: day-to-day racisme and misogyny disguised in "jokes" made by many managers.

Thank you for your sharing your feedback. We are sorry that this is your point of view but we believe it is not the truth and want to reiterate that it is not the kind of company and work environment we tend to build. With ‘Product vision’ as one of the 7 axis on our Masterplan, it is a key investment area. When planning the roadmap, we consult our clients to see what their needs are, and keep this in line with our product investment. Moreover, in 2019 we plan to significantly grow the R&D teams. Finally, we encourage everyone to contribute to our Product vision by organizing an annual worldwide Hackathon for teams to come up with their most disruptive ideas to build CS future. It is correct that we have grown a lot very quickly are no longer a start-up, but we try to retain the spirit of a small team through social events (quarterly parties, Friday beer etc.). Concerning promotions, they are based on Performance and internal opportunities. Managers play a big role here by giving continuous feedback to their team members. We're currently building Career Paths for all jobs, which will help teams and managers identify opportunities for growth, which they will be able to discuss in weekly 1/1 or end of quarter reviews - it’s really important to us to help people grow individually as well as in their team. As for the racism and misogyny, we of course do not tolerate such behaviour and encourage you to alert HR to be able to act in case of established facts.
