Ambitious but confused tech company... - Anonymous employee FNC Employee Review

There have been recent layoffs and reductions in pay and benefits, so job security is an issue. There also isn't a lot of opportunity to advance your career within the company without breaking the chain of command. Don't expect pay raises. There are also problems with morale, but this likely has more to do with simultaneously laying off people and slashing pay and benefits. Despite talk regarding training and development of staff, it rarely happens for developers except among a special chosen few - I am unsure as to whether this is due to nepotism or not. And despite what management might think, developers are undervalued and underpaid.
