Pros

I have a no stress life here with a lot of sun and a lot of parties with colleagues and no one demands from me any high performance. I have also a lot more vacations than I had before.

Cons

everyone is super fearful but hides it behind a friendly facade - too quick to see the worst in anyone and too cowardly to resolve things directly. generally they are very lame - taking idiotic decisions which just shows they have no idea what they are talking about but don't point it out just go with the flow or they won't like you. amadeus people are as small minded as it gets. making a big deal out of nothing always watching others talking about others putting down others to show they're not so very unimportant and mediocre as they actually are.

Pros

- a perfect place for brainless, lazy people, that blindly follow management decisions - the weather - I left the company!

Cons

- highly political environment - the culture and values are only on the posters in the wall - if you have no personal life and willing to spend most of your time in Amadeus you may like it - the area is a province and the same about people mentality, you won't make any new friends outside Amadeus - I am not affraid of use the word "racism" - not french, no grande ecole, don't speak french - if you miss on of those features you are going to be treaten as a slave - Technical expertise is not a case. The non technical people decide about technical solutions - It's absolutely true that active people are considered as trouble makers - A friend of mine was fired as he disagreed with the management decision and didn't want to follow their idea, that was simply stupid - Actually the situation happened twice within the time I worked there - The univeristy students should be taken here for a trip to show them how a bad company looks like - You feel like the time stopped here. In 70's - They literally have a survey contained of several hundreads question and ask devs to fill it to evaluate the project quality. However no testing, code quality, code review, design patterns, etc. - You can't criticise anything, you just swim in the mud of bugs, old technology, stupid ideas, skilles people and every approach of trying to improve the situation ends up in your manager office as you complain and don't show enthusiasm - To sum up: this place is sick - it might be crazy to find another job, if you don't have any other project to follow. After fixing bugs in a spaghetti code, you simply forget everything - numbers of newly graduated people that never worked anywhere before and think the situation is normal. What's worst they quickly adapt to Amadeus standards - the product definition people are... forget. I can't say anything without using a word that is not rude

Pros

Leadership management company that help people to develop themselves Finance driven company which has pro and con; But very performing Finance department. Innovation and developmenet of new product/project is a reality in Amadeus. Compensations and social advantages are good Salary wise, outstanding for the Social benef French riviera is a wondeful place to leave for people who love sea and mountain, hiking and sailing, skying and swimming

Cons

Carrier progression has become slower and his more and more difficult Technology wise the company may not be in the right decade Place to leave in outrageously expensive. nearly impossible to "buy" something decent. You'll have to rent.
