Svantaggi
they hire people, then they don't listen to what they have to say. Why do they have so many Directors? Most of them are totally clueless of what goes in the company. There is simply no middleman between management and developers. The development team was a joke. They spent years and millions of dollars developing worthless software. And when someone told them, hold on, this will not work, the response will be: We want to meet the deadline, we don't care if the software has any practical use. Don't get me wrong. All developers were great at their jobs and did amazing things in very short time. They worked overtime and totally earned their salary. Too bad nobody took the time to do a feasibility study beforehand ... The research team was also a joke. Most (and probably all) of the Ph.D.s in the company work as developers. At the same time, the culture in the company was to hate Ph.D.s and everything that came from "research". A lot can also be desired from HR and hiring. I heard that they fired a Ph.D. in computer science and hired a Ph.D. in psychology to run software development, great move, wouldn't you say? IMHO a company with no vision is destined to fail.
