Worked with great people on interesting projects but frustrated by management decisions and interteam conflicts.

Senior software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Lots of friendly and competent people to work with There are some interesting technical problems to solve (if you can get on one of those projects) The benefits are good.

Cons

Poor/hostile relations between teams on separate sites Too much reinventing the wheel - groups have no idea what tools, libraries, functionality have already been written in house Long process for using OSS (GPL not allowed) in projects Management does whatever it thinks best without asking employees Management is trying to do more with less employees and work-life balance suffers Management jerks teams around. They give you a project then transfer it away then assign another and then transfer it away. That does wonders for morale. Everything moves very slowly. Adoption of new technology and methodology is years behind.

Great company to work for with THE BEST work life balance

Senior software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

1. Best work life balance anyone can get. 2. Very good Infrastructure

Cons

1. Work is not very challenging. 2. ANYONE can survive in this company as there is too much freedom and the hard working people suffer because of the ones who do not work. 3. Pay is slightly on the lower side but not too low for the kind of work environment and facilities provided.
