Terrible Work/Life Balance , Forced D&I - Reverse Discrimination, Senior Leadership Disconnected

Technology lead

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Base salaries are competitive. There is free coffee in the break-rooms.

Cons

SeniorLeadership is extremely removed from operations. Culture is largely HP and VMware, Dell ex-employees who hire and promote their buddies. Forced D&I causes results in more opportunities for women and minorities regardless of performance. Terrible Work/Life balance (Expect calls on vacation, holidays, extremely long hours). Performance reviews are irrelevant - your end of year comp is based on fixed allocations where only a couple receive top marks so supervisors meet "quotas". The technology resources are NEVER mentioned by senior leadership - those in sales and client facing teams are praised at all-hands meetings. The company slogan of people matter does not apply at all to internal resources - people are fired for cheaper offshore labor!
