Pros

Head of the GDS game (according to market share), upper management are concerned with changing for the better, fair pay, plenty of change in the future for the better.

Cons

Tons of silos still exist, benefits are lackluster, no real travel discounts, barely contribute to insurance cost increases, raises consist of a yearly inflation adjustment, extremely slow to change or process anything, not concerned with it's line level employee's opinions, no training opportunities.

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
