Long-term Software Group employee
Long-term Software Group employee
Flexible working. Average pay. Great opportunities for women, minorities, and disabled individuals. Potential to work on significant projects. Good work-life balance. The people are often great; you can almost rely on anyone in the organization to be helpful.
- Morale rock-bottom.
- Project management often very poor. Projects are badly run and technically compromised through lack of planning and arbitrary dates.
- No training, except from fellow employees.
- Sometimes awful work-life balance. It can depend.
- The company PBC process for rating employees is demoralizing and gears up employees to play the game rather than excelling at their day job.
Take software engineering seriously – it is what a software group should be about.
