Are you a senior developer? Don't join. - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Amadeus

Technology: - old technology - poor C++ code quality - in-house middleware stack - poor internal tools - no willingness to change Careers and perks: - promotions based on french "grandes ecoles" (top universities). - you are not promoted if you are a strong developer either. work, talent and meritocracy are not part of the Amadeus vocabulary - bonuses and other financial perks dramatically decreased since 2007, making it even less attractive to join - below average pay rises for senior developers. the excuse is to favour younger ones. so basically, senior devs are not encouraged to stay. - if you are a senior, don't get enchanted by the big salary they offer you to join. they will surely not give you a decent pay rise the year after. that's what happened to senior dev friends that joined - and of course, totally absent HR
