Body rental - Developer Senior Piksel Employee Review

I am excited about the new ownership and their strategic vision for this multi-national company.

We've got some work to do to reposition this legacy technology company for the future; yet I am up to it.

Decent pay, interesting projects, talented employees at the lower levels. Multiple offices throughout the world gives an opportunity for travel.

Problems throughout upper management and sales. The incompetence of the sales team has cost dozens of people their jobs. Upper management randomly reward themselves with new titles to add to their resumes. One member of upper management has a knack for insulting different races and religions every time he opens his mouth. Another acts like a schoolyard bully at times, and a spoiled child unwilling to share a toy at other times. The company seems more interested in how much money they can put in C-level pockets than the happiness of employees, including greatly overworking employees and delaying raises and promotions until enough people get fed up and quit so the company doesn't have to give those people their well-deserved promotions. And when people do quit, their work is dropped on others who are already overloaded. Each office, and even groups with an office, are like silos. There is no communication between offices unless people are working on the same project, and no communication across projects, even when they are very similar. This sort of lack of communication is a common problem throughout the company except for the "in crowd" who seem to spend more time stroking each other's egos than doing actual work. This cliquey culture has also resulted in obvious favoritism when it comes to certain departments and offices.
