Siemens

• A global and well-known company operating in multiple industries.

I was really excited to join Siemens Industry Software (Polarion) when I received an employment offer. The first 5-7 work days passed, working on setting up the development environment and getting permissions and approvals.

One day, when I went to the company premises to get my PKI card, I was warned by an IT Support Member that I would face weird things during my probation period here.

On my 25th work day, when I finished my second task and another developer contacted me to introduce another part of the application to me, I was called to a 1:1 meeting by the line manager.

During this 1:1 meeting, the line manager told me that they wouldn't continue with me without a clear reason.

Until that moment, there was no warning, feedback, or indication.

I would never recommend this company where the probation period is used unprofessionally and unnaturally.
