Pros

Great bunch of people who work outside the water infrastructure divison

Cons

Toxic working environment within the EMEA Client Services Team Unsupportive managers. Attitudes such as "if you don't like it here, then you should leave!" Managers encourging members of staff to mislead customers on the future of some desktop products Nepotism is rife Products that have no active development are continued to be sold. These products are essentially dead at their development cycle. However customers are told otherwise. Examples include InfoAsset Manager, InfoAsset Mobile and InfoAsset Online

Pros

It looks like a lot of focus on diversity, new ideas, collaboration, etc. Teams are nice and helpful for the most part.

Cons

At the end of the day, you're a line on a spreadsheet. Layoffs will come. No doubt. Managers are looking out for themselves while preaching a good game of teamwork. Leadership is woefully unprepared and focused on themselves as brands, not uplifting individual contributors.

Pros

- Great benefits (stock plan, RSUs, wellness refund, health insurance, dental insurance, vision insurance) - Career growth can be easy under the right manager - Free meals and snacks at certain offices - Gym and/or fitness classes provided at certain offices - Career counsellors

Cons

- Social: Lost of community during and after pandemic especially in AMER - Job safety: Multiple restructures are making it challenging to feel safe. - Unprofessional behaviour: Some leaders are too comfortable being opinionated about people and projects behind people's backs, without providing feedback for growth. Even after reports of misconduct, some higher ups are still in office. - Lack of bandwidth across company: Some leaders are spread so thin that they take decision without understanding the issue, or bring in other unrelated issues in discussions because of confusion. In the same line, developers, engineering managers, program managers, and product managers are spread thin and require too much context switching. We're given the career growth card, to take in more responsibilities, without any wins on our end - Transparency: Unclear methodology to promote employees and/or not transparent way of saying "No" - HR: Company is protected first, not employee. No report is completely anonymous. Employees know who wrote a report on them, and do reach out to them. Even if in good faith, the hope is that the reporter remains anonymous. - Collaboration: If you're in e-commerce, the tension is so high that collaboration is more challenging than anything. Employees have displayed impatience and lack of empathy, which makes it difficult to gather information - Late in the game for technology growth, specifically in AI. We're not trendsetters, but we should fast-follow. We're behind imho
