Wonderful industry, market leader... however very frustrating and too much pressure
Pros
- Market leader and very profitable company - Interesting industry (airlines & travel) - Nice location, in the forest of the South of France - Job for life - Many colleagues as friends
Cons
- Traffic in Sophia - Huge pressure to deliver, no plan, prioritization, or clear direction from management on what really is the priority - Priorities change on a daily basis - Nothing ever gets achieved unless escalated - Huge infighting between departments - SLOW and EXPENSIVE to deliver any new features to a customer - Bureaucratic - HR weak, no clear policies or tools for managers to work with their staff - Arrogant development, who deliver over priced poor quality code - The complete time wasting, and pointless budget process - Bonus system is pointless (difference between poor performer and top performer 4% in bonus)
