Never allowed to do what I was hired for

Senior software development engineer in test

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

I guess the technology was interesting (if vastly outdated). Many of the people were fantastic (and deserve better).

Cons

I was hired under false pretenses. I was hired to do something, and never got to do it, due to misguided middle management and peers, and spineless upper management. The tools they have in place, and much of the technology, is severely out-of-date, and there are too many people that "like it that way". Innovation is stifled in the name of the status quo.

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good pay, good benefits, very sharp people, the firm has a solid reputation

Cons

The company is struggling to get past its love of "made in house" platform tools., Akamai needs to incorporate latest open source tools into the platform.
