      Too much politics, Manager that are not Managers

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The environment is young, it could be a place full of energy

      Cons

      Managers are not trained to be Managers or they just don't care. It's just escalation point, no focus on development despite the company corporate message.

      Pros

      Very good learning opportunity; Access to almost every documentation, even source code; Free canteen; Great colleagues: friendly, knowledgeable, helpful; Collaborative environment; Own laptop: permission to install as one likes.

      Cons

      Unfairness; Work performance not recognized, even when working in average 14-16 hours/day; Nepotism; Extreme high work load. Actually no real career opportunities if one speaks other languages than English as well.

      Excellence/Knowledge center which progressively turned into a CallCenter for the Technical Support department

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      1/2 Months training on Virtualization Technology when you join Nice canteen and office/campus Nice to have on CV Casual environment

      Cons

      - Job exclusively centered on metrics/statistics, every move is now monitored to squeeze you more. - Regularly not trained on new products or only 6 months later. - No time given to work on projects beside closing support requests. - Very repetitive and exhausting. - Support department is considered to waste money by top management because it does not sell anything. With a such vision, it is unlikely to see new benefits given to the department albeit the company makes more money than ever. - Interests conflicts as (Senior) management is made up of family/friends. - No medium/long term vision, one day you are asked to produce quality, the day after, quantity is the only word you hear.
