Pros
The teams and original GFI/Kerio/Exinda employees are incredible. They understand what it is to go through change and acquisitions (God knows they should, there have been more than enough!) and are willing to support each other and new comers. They are the only good thing about the company and they are dropping like flies due to redundancies and people leaving.
Cons
Management expect you to work as robots, with no feeling or care. It is all about numbers and targets. There is no forward thinking or planning; decisions and massive changes are just made without any communication to employees or teams and you are just expected to deal with it and clean up the mess that is made for the clients, without any support, guidance or communication. That coupled with making 20-30 people redundant every 6 months or so when they acquire a new company because it is cheaper to on-board new staff as contractors rather than salary, means that knowledge base and quality of service is little to none - this makes it hard to perform and reach goals without necessary tools/knowledge to do so. Management are cold and ruthless and only see their teams as numbers to generate profit. There are no incentives, benefits or mentoring skills offered. You may as well be in a concentration camp with a number tattooed on your arm. You are thrown in the 'deep end' and expected to excel, not just swim. Communication is shady and grey at best and changes come out of nowhere. The big goal to be a "billion dollar company in 10 years" is their target with no regard or respect to their employees, clients or Partners. Employees are replaceable. That is their attitude 100%. Don't work here unless you want to be replaced by someone on a cheaper contract in 6-12 months. You won't learn anything except what it is like to be a robot.
