Pros

Found good people to work within and outside my team, except a few outliers.

Cons

This review is not just about a specific person or just management issues but instead it is about the entirety of the company as a whole. 1. Management of teams/projects is absolutely pathetic. Not sure what the project management in DT is actually doing. Instead of making developers lives easier, they are making it more difficult by providing false expectations to the client. 2. Many managers within engineering and business are not even taking any initiative towards the same goal, which is to provide the best solution to the client. Instead, there is continuous pointing of fingers to put blame on others. No collaboration. 3. Many team lead/managers are not able to even do their bare minimum of tasks and instead keep piling work onto their subordinates. Huge lack of leadership and taking of responsibility. 4. CTO is absolutely clueless in the tech domain and does not have the necessary skills to back himself up. Only a yapper. 5. Salaries are at an all time low. No increments. Nothing. No opportunity for growth in skills. Many developers are going above and beyond but still getting 4-figure salaries and some even have families. 6. Zero structure within the company, someone senior says something and then someone else says something and it is a total mess. Lack of clarity leading to delayed project timelines and not enough resource allocation. 7. Heavy outsourcing which leads to subpar quality in solutions. 8. Huge disparity in treatment with women versus men, primarily in the engineering department. Talking down to people and name calling to those who do not know something, especially if the person is a woman.

Pros

- Good healthcare and family benifit

Cons

- No programs for career growth - Salaries not on time at all - Politics in management, people with no skills retained - The CTO has no sense of professionalism and not at all up to date with tech, he sleeps in meetings, scolds developers without understanding problem, has doomed office money (millions of AED) by giving project to outsiders and not even getting output. - The HR head thinks she owns Dubai Technology, don't be surprised if she stares with fire in her eyes because you were chatting in office. - No activities setup by HR to boost employee moral or engagement. - Developers are given laptop that tracks time and there will be penalty if you don't fill 9 hours per day even though you don't have work. - The company uses unsupported version of Microsoft tech and tools and delivers project to one of the finest Dubai government entities its just matter of time they will get big lawsuits.

Pros

Was a nice place to work.

Cons

Downfall of DT due to low quality decision making by senior members. Almost all senior members thought they were exceptionally brilliant but in reality , lacked leadership qualities. Everyone points finger on the other. Policies and workflow are never thought to follow. After my termination , DT senior members least cared. Heared a lot about HR madam bossing around. Hope this team considers supporting terminated staffs. No 1 knows, 1 day they would be in our spot. I should have dealt hard with these ppl when I worked here.
