Pros

The main pro of Amadeus is Work/life balance. You are expected to work around 7 hours and a half and there is no pressure at all. You can get a calm life here, the area is great in summer because of the sea and nice in winter thanks to the mountains. Depending on the team you might get really interesting projects or you might be doomed to recurring activities.

Cons

Big con: Human resources. Some people is hired without knowing what is C++ (hired as C++ developers). Also a con: Depending on the team you might get really interesting projects or you might be doomed to recurring activities. As said, work/life is great, what means that there is a lot of people with are just "going through" the day, don't be surprised if there is people not performing at all and therefore blocking your work.

Pros

- Learning opportunities, every day brought something new to tackle or explore - Decent benefits package that covered the essentials - Competitive salary relative to industry standards

Cons

- Management is aggressively enforcing a hybrid model, even for remote employees, and is rescinding previously agreed upon contracts. There's a glaring lack of strategic vision from leadership. - If you're based in Europe or North America, job security is virtually nonexistent unless you're in upper management. Roles are being shifted to India, Colombia, and the Philippines, with cost-cutting prioritized over talent, experience, or loyalty. - The forced migration to Azure, compounded by poor planning, is draining resources. And employees are paying the price — not just through increased workload, but by being let go in recent layoffs (October '25). With many of the positions eliminated quietly transferred to offshore. - Layoffs are being justified as “market alignment” and financial necessity. Yet at the same time, the company continues to absorb small to medium-sized companies, raising serious questions about transparency, priorities, and long-term stability.
