Good culture. Very good work life balance. Amazing benefits & vacation policy. Great opportunities and also people follow very good challenge process.

Very hard to get raise or bonus for engineers. Expect a raise probably once in 3 yrs. Compensation philosophy is not good and very limited growth !!

Great products, clueless "sales" managers (most, not all)

Business Outlook

Pros

- fantastic products, - awesome technical staff, - renown brand,

Cons

- clueless middle managers who essentially are walking Excel files just pointing the obvious numbers without offering solution or responsibilities, most of them barely have a clue about what the company sells - unnecessary processes killing the actual business of the company, thinking clueless managers who never actually - incoherent strategy: management prefers a 1 x 500k$ opportunity @ 15%GP rather than 20 x 50k€ @ 60%GP, even if the company is not competitive on 500k businesses - salaries are getting lower and lower, disregarding skills to save on salaries - your evolution depends more on "who you know" rather than your actual skills or performances. Many great people left because of this...
