Lots of Potential Completely Wasted
Pros
Great at hiring good talent, some very bright people, teams were collaborative and all the developers I worked with were bright. The Project Leads were talented as well, and I have to applaud the work they have done in trying to fulfill unrealistic expectations of management team (mainly CEO)
Cons
As stated before, the main problems at Orbis lie within the uppermost management. Abusive CEO, almost textbook like an abusive relationship, requirements could change at a moment's notice, not being able to read his mind was punished with verbal abuse. I never was yelled at myself, but was in more that one meeting where I would see it happen. The project manager's did their best to shield and defend hard-working development team, but it was an impossible task. Inflexible policies, despite small company size and the fact that the technology industry should allow for some of the most flexible work environments of all. Long hours and overtime expected, without compensation. It has been said better than I could possibly say it in previous reviews, but it cannot be restated enough.
