Allscripts Expert Software Engineer reviews

Management pushing their subordinates to work 70 hour weeks to try to meet artificial and unrealistic deadlines resulting from poor planning and management making commitments to the board that have no basis in reality while ignoring feedback from their subordinates saying that such commitments are unrealistic. Simultaneously bragging about working for a billion dollar company while cutting promised bonuses and being unwilling to pay competitive salaries for some much-needed experienced workers. Making a huge show of gathering feedback from employees, promising on multiple occasions to take such feedback seriously and provide a summary to all employees, then consistently both ignoring that feedback and failing to provide it to the employees. On more than one occasion it was (accidentally?) made clear by management that they had no intention of listening to employee feedback, they just wanted the employees to believe that management was considering their feedback. A very suspicious case of corporate reorganization, which included the elimination of the positions of several valuable and talented employees. Those same employees were the most outspoken in their criticisms against poor management decisions. Those same employees were probably the best chance the company had at preventing this effort from becoming an even bigger failure. Lies are not uncommon from management.

No stock option. Only ESPP. Dev teams overseas make cooperation complicated.
