Vantaggi
- Free parking/bus passes. - Work from home facility (although it's misused many times).
Svantaggi
- Not an employee friendly company. - Bangalore is the worst site in Sabre. - Too bureaucratic. Mid and senior management needs a complete change. They have age-old mentality and are unwilling to adopt industry best practices. - Lot of work pressure, especially for Leads. NO WORK-LIFE BALANCE. Have been working for 15-18 hours including meetings since so long. And unfortunately management ignores this even when they are informed about this many times. - On top of this, you don't get growth. Because there all old timers who always get preference. - Please your bosses (even if you need to dance for that) and get promoted. - Highly distributed teams. No product owners, no dedicated scrum master. - Even if product owner is there, their hands are all tied up. - Team/Tech lead is supposed to be Scrum Master and Tech Lead and Architect and Manager. - In many cases local manager is just people manager while work-related manager will be in US. Local manager is not involved in team's day-to-day activities and won't even know what the team is going through. Remote manager doesn't bother what issues team is facing, they'll just keep loading more work. - All this is really frustrating and suffocating. Many good people coming from very good companies are planning to quit. - Results of annual surveys are fudged to make everything look rosy. - Really bad planning in lot of projects. - Since past couple of years they are trying to adopt Agile. But they think having a dedicated scrum master or product owner is waste of money/resources. - Managers want to show that they are working and for that they call lot of meetings over-burdening others. They can't take a decision. They delegate everything to team leads. - If you aspire to move in either technical or managerial line, even then you will be pushed in the other line. No proper career path for growth.
