Pros

Marketing team posting positive reviews on glassdoor (it is only thing Solera is doing with success).

Cons

Everything, seriously. Legacy systems with horrorish code and infrastructure. Lying each day and promising improvements. Management without idea about products and without plan. Only target is to use the employees and sell company ASAP. Treating people like garbage, constant lay offs. Constant panic mode and issues with products. They like people to work 24/7 without compensation and even good word.

Pros

Used to have a good atmosphere with great people

Cons

Senior technical management incompetence destroyed the place. As an example, senior technical management person insisted project be done a certain way despite the protestations of 3 senior and very experienced engineers (over 60 years experience between them). Dissenting engineers were ignored and re-assigned. Project subsequently failed after the third re-write. The same thing happened with another project. Meddled with things they shouldn't have and insisted a certain framework was used when totally unnecessary. As a result project was delayed months.

Pros

Cracking team in development and content creation, knowledgeable and talented and friendly people.

Cons

Since being acquired by Solera the company has been driven into the ground. Solera bought the business for the data and does not care about the product.

Hello and thank you for your feedback. We’re really pleased to hear that you met and worked with really great people here at Autodata, but it is always disappointing to hear when a former colleague is unhappy about some aspects of the company. We appreciate the business is going through a period of change and, as we look to introduce these changes, this can make things testing at times for anybody. We do believe these challenges are the same for any organisation as it changes, however, I will pass on your comments to our Board of Directors. I do know they are aware that these changes can be unsettling for some people and we will continue to do our best to talk through things with our employees. Our managers and HR team are, of course, always on hand and happy to discuss any issues or thoughts our colleagues may have. As a former employee you will be aware that Chris Wright, the MD of sister company, cap hpi is now at the helm for Autodata. Chris is a very experienced MD and has a 100% positive rating amongst cap hpi employees, past and present. Chris, with his management team encourages all feedback into the business whether that reflects something that we could do better, or something we do really well. We do, of course, wish you every success in your future work.
