Painful, but valuable experience
Pros
To put it short, I learned a lot. A couple of interesting products to work on. Products really make a difference to be proud of! Most of the time there were some excellent teams to work with in Lenexa and in Sofia. Decent salary and benefits. Office space used to be great some of the time.
Cons
Chaotic management was the greatest problem. Lack of planning and processes. No clear goals and priorities. No development plans even for key experts on the teams. Poor team performance and communication in Chennai. Nonexistent company culture sporadically turning into a toxic nightmare. An omnipresent sense of uncertainty and anxiety. All teams get distracted with CEO’s side projects to the point they no longer can support company’s core products. Micromanagement is the norm. Nonexistent flexibility policies.
