Vantaggi

Only reason to work at Lenovo, at least the team I'm currently in, is to pay the bills, have medical insurance, and 401K (while it lasts...)

Svantaggi

EXTREME LACK OF PRODUCTIVITY They could have stayed away from the old fashioned, inefficient IBM bloated processes, but they kept using the same processes over and over. All of the problems that this team had at IBM are still here, and even worse. There is no overall vision, no training for employees, managers only know how to move people from team A to team B, then add pressure while making everyone's life miserable. Add to this total madness where development of code happens out of people across all timezones and various parts of the world, and you have a recipe for disaster. Developers at the same time no longer care anymore, they write subpar code lacking quality, tightly coupled, unit testing anyone? Of course not! This is a big mess, a sinking ship, and eventually all US employees will be laid off. Rightfully so, since this is unsustainable. The only reason I'm still here is because I have to pay the bills, and because I haven't found a job yet elsewhere.

Interesting comments....not particularly inspiring to us considering you say the only reason to be here is to pay bills. That is not the sort of outlook that leads to success here. We do wish you the best moving forward as it doesn't look like you enjoy your work here. But, while you are with us before you leave, and we are paying you, you have an obligation to give us your very best. You can inspire those around you. You can communicate your concerns and lead to streamlined processes to fix things. You are part of the Lenovo family. We need you to help. If you have answers, we want you to act on them and make us better.
