AGDATA reviews

politics, compensation, bonus structure, few non technical positions, favoritism

The cyclical, seasonal nature of a good portion of the work means doing the exact same thing, year after year. Programmers are treated with a lower level of respect than the client-facing account managers. Instead of being given actual supervisory authority, most officer-level employees on the technical side are involved too deeply in day-to-day technical tasks instead of being able to establish sound technical management practices. All-in-all, a very operational, crank-it-out type environment where technical and problem-solving skills tend to erode over the years.
