Svantaggi
- Rocky onboarding. I was made to feel that I couldn’t ask simpler questions. - Recently asked all employees to Return to Office 3 days a week and have severely restricted flexible working potential. - Huge disparities in pay. For the majority of people, the salary is atrocious and not at all competitive. Annual pay reviews are terrible. - Siloed working. - Expected to go above and beyond your grade for long while to even get a chance of being promoted. - Management are hostile in tone and language, and you’re expected to just stomach it. It can get toxic here. Employees are encouraged to raise issues but they are always ignored. - Work can be boring. - Work environments are unsuitable and don’t have enough space or desks. Either too hot or too cold. - Rather than give software tasks a complexity value, you must track every hour spent on tasks and log work, with estimates based on how long it will take. If you don’t log most of your contracted hours management will get “pissed off” and you are labelled as ignorant for pushing back; yet there isn’t even a place to log things like project-specific training. - Expect to have no involvement with public clouds. - HR sometimes doesn’t answer questions. - Lots of lip service, but little actual attention is paid to supporting those with disabilities.
