A Toxic Nightmare - Avoid at All Costs

Pros

Except for CEO & his IBM colleges others never see any Pro..

Cons

I wish I could give zero stars, because that's exactly what they deserve. From day one, it was evident that the office culture here is beyond toxic. If you value your mental and emotional well-being, stay far away from this place. Management is a complete joke.They talk a big game during the interview process, but once you're on board, they couldn't care less about your growth or happiness. It's all about numbers and profits, even if it means sacrificing employee morale. They play favorites, and if you're not part of their inner circle, good luck getting any recognition or opportunities. The micromanagement is suffocating. I felt like I was constantly being watched and criticized for every little thing. There's zero trust in employees to do their jobs competently. This lack of autonomy is incredibly demoralizing and counterproductive.Office politics are out of control. It's like being back in high school, with cliques and gossip ruling the day. If you're not willing to play the game and engage in the drama, you'll quickly find yourself isolated and excluded.Work-life balance is non-existent. Expect to work long hours, weekends, and even holidays. Management sets unrealistic expectations and then blames you when you inevitably burn out. HR is a complete joke as well. They claim to be there for support, but when you bring up concerns about the toxic culture, they either brush it off or feign ignorance. It's clear that they're more interested in protecting the company's image than actually addressing employee well-being. The turnover rate speaks volumes. In the short time I was there, I witnessed numerous colleagues leave due to the unbearable environment. It's a revolving door of employees who quickly realize that their mental health and happiness are worth more than a paycheck. In summary, avoid this company like the plague. It's not worth sacrificing your well-being for a paycheck. There are plenty of other opportunities out there that offer a healthier and more supportive work environment. Don't fall into the trap of thinking things will get better – they won't. Your sanity is more valuable than any job.

Pros

You don't have option, join at your own risk.

Cons

1. First, they'll give you promotions and prizes. Then, one morning, you'll see that your account has been locked, and HR will call to ask you to turn in your assets. When you ask why, they'll give the standard, uncomplicated response that they don't know. 2. The top management is made up of IBM employees; while they lack the business sense and fundamental IAM domain knowledge to operate the company, they work well together to keep each other's jobs secure. 3. Never believe the CEO when he says there won't be any organisational changes; the next day, the entire organisational structure is modified without conducting sufficient communications. 4. Projects are carried out without the necessary resources, and a 16-year-old experience person must perform entry-level and middle-level work that add to do 14 hour job on a daily basis. No one is available to listen to your concerns. 5. The HR department in Simeio is with no voice; its sole responsibility is to process salaries, run survey and send emails about workplace fun events. If we go to them with a concern, they route it to your managers without understanding the issues.

Surprised Simeio is still open for business

Pros

Attracted good talent. Extremely young, technical people got exposed to many toolsets. Initially Simeio seems attractive and very cutting edge in IDaaS. Lower level staff worked very hard to help one another.

Cons

Revolving door of staff. Seven people resigned my first week of work. Upper management undermines itself. My manager was a VP (since gone), great person, really worked hard to turn things around; his manager, C-level, would constantly undermine him, speak poorly about him in front of others, and come directly to me with demands, without consulting my manager first. His jealousy would have been pathetic if he weren’t in such a position of power. Every good person I knew (during and after my employment) left specifically because of this C-level person and his ego. Despite the fact that Simeio is headquartered in Atlanta, they try to take every single job they possibly can over to India, including the head of HR! When I announced I was leaving, my job also went to India, despite most of the people I supervised being in North America. This is due to being financed by a firm out of NYC that has very high demands on profitability. If you are non-Indian, you will soon realize what a disadvantage it is; if you are Indian, whether in US, India, or elsewhere, you will be taken advantage of. If you are a sycophant, this is a great place for you, as upper management truly wants people to suck up to them. Finance and Sales were run much more cleanly though. It goes without saying that the hours were horrendous.
