Good place but poor culture

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

Good pay and bonus Challenging projects International environment Good salary and interesting tech, but it’s all tangled in endless bureaucracy. You’ll burn hours explaining why you need to do your job instead of actually doing it. Lately, leadership’s obsession with “strategic resourcing” (moving everything to the cheapest bidder and outsourcing) has destroyed team morale and quality. Skill and experience matter less than fitting a spreadsheet narrative. It’s a paycheck with prestige, not a place to grow or be heard.

Cons

Poor culture Constant reorgs Bureaucracy Do the minimum mentality Heavy recruitment process
