Great place for brown nosers! - Software Engineer Lexmark International Employee Review

Pros

Great place for brown nosers. You don't have to do actual work, just stroke the correct egos and use buzz words in meetings, or just ask random questions (with no real weight to them)during area meetings. Bring up problems, dont worry about solutions, not the point to fix anything. Unlimited vacation

Cons

Finding the correct person whose ego to stroke may take some time. Software management is clueless on how to run a software organization. They have no future roadmap (v2.0 of current SW does not count). Mgmt team has no desire to grow employees. Work from home is DISCOURAGED, even though they claim it as a perk. Working from home is held against you in very subtle ways (general meetings will not provide call in info, you will be ignored when you do come to office). Work from home employees are often an afterthought. Pay is below the national average for roles. Pay raises, bonuses are sometimes non-existent. Pay raises fall below cost of life raise percentage. Lexmark is a good ol' boy club.

Pros

Solid software team working with modern frameworks in the cloud. Products are simple but have complex and unique scaling needs across printer fleets and print release. Great people, even able to make long time friends.

Cons

Leadership is risk adverse. Coming from hardware their release processes can be burdensome and overly cautious. Innovation stagnates due to this but also, layoffs are a common place which creates concern and risks each year.
