      Worst tenure of my Job journey till now. at Gemalto/ Thales - Join at your risk.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Flexible timing. No issues with leaves. 6.5 hours shift will mark your attendence for whole day. Good technology stack in few projects. Great products

      Cons

      There are a lot of cons. - French Management rules the company. - Indian Manager was just a puppet of French manager and will never take stand for you. - There is very less transparency in the system. - Lot of Favouritism in the team. - No or improper KT is given. some old people in the team will not guide you as they don't want to lose their dependency. - Old people in the company are ruling and enjoying the perks. - Big brand with some process like small local companies. - they will show fancy JD but the work would be very bad and you will regret joining Gemalto/ Thales - Do not Join Digital payments/ mobile financial services - important tip. - HR are worst till date of my career. - Your work will never be appreciated if you are not in Indian and French manager favorite list. - Do not join for Devops or integration profile. It's completely waste. - very less people open to knowledge sharing., Indirectly there is politics but not visible openly. - Join at your risk. There is hire and fire system.

      Worst company - All talk, no walk.

      Senior engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      New office for out at World Trade Center ATM Business Coffee machine Colleagues at worker level. Leadership is good at making promises and presenting BS. your manager is the determining factor. Most lack leadership ability, technical expertise, integrity, general ability to interact. excrement flows down hill. Paid to look for other work.

      Cons

      Fear culture No leadership HR is negligent/ evil in Carnet springs to mind. Senior management negligent, not interested, if they are involved they won’t add any value, just block or fail to make a decision. Nothing real here. French vs UK, Ausie’s are can fodder/Punching bags Early starts late finishes (that’s what they mean by flexible working. I’ll be surprised if this business actually delivers a functioning product. No real focus on people or the product.
