      Never been gaslit more by a company in my life

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Good benefits and send you nice stuff at Christmas. Was given a bonus in my first year for my work and achievements.

      Cons

      Straight after I was given a bonus (where my manager said we could discuss a promotion at my next review) I alerted (anonymously) hr that a co-worker, new employee was struggling with the lack of onboarding structure and how difficult his managers were (as people). Said struggling employee was fired within two weeks. About two months later I had a 1-1 with hr where I told them I was struggling, I felt my manager was gaslighting me, telling me (I’m HOD under C level) that I can push the department however I see fit, and then speaking against my proposals to leadership. Anyway, I told them I was struggling, my manager was not supporting me and it was very hard to actually progress company objectives. My next meeting with said hr was to be told I was being made redundant.

      Hey there. We're really sorry that you had this experience and also apologies that we took a few months to get back to you. We really appreciate your feedback and input. This sounds like quite a specific situation and I don't think it would be fair to go into details of the whys and wherefores of it. Suffice to say I really hope you're doing well and we're grateful for your input.

      Great place to work

      Principal software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      I have had the privilege to work in some of the biggest projects in the world, and always surrounded by extraordinary colleagues. I got to use the technology I thought fit the project and do all the phases from architecting to seeing it live. The career allowed me to grow to principal engineer from mid level engineer.

      Cons

      In some projects clients don't see us as leadership but just as delivery, this makes it hard to deliver good solutions

      Thank you for the lovely positive review. We strive to keep an amazing team and to have them work on the best of projects with great clients and we are happy to have you see that. Working with clients is not always going to be the smoothest of tasks however the journey of learning it takes us on is invaluable. We will pass the message on to Fabio too!

      Giving people the opportunity to grow and progress to be the top of their tier is so important for us, in whatever role they are in. We do understand that fast growth is something that can show internal structural issues and this is something we are always learning on to make our company stronger. Thank you for your feedback.
