      Matrix Structure Kills Ambitions

      Pros

      Yahoo! is a diverse business and if you make the effort you can learn a lot. It has some really smart people. Generally, people are very respectful of one another.

      Cons

      Matrix organisation which gets worse in Europe. Very political and the wrong people are promoted. Management does not make hard decisions about people. They keep people who are mediocre for too long. That is why they are in such a mess now.

      Good company to work ---- Not GREAT !

      Web developer

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      It is a fun company to work with. Feel great to be associated with it -- All these feelings are only for a while! Your honeymoon period in Yahoo! can be for a long time. Managers are usually fun and good to work with. Very understanding, very supportive. Benefits are good compared to other companies !

      Cons

      The process is spread over all over the world. Yet the treatment given is so very different. The work can get boring after while. New Managers are boring idiots! They hire outside people for Managerial positions(only in few departments)

      Don't believe all you read - try it for yourself!

      Pros

      learn about the best and most interesting industry of the world with a company that is really applying sound management to the industry of online advertising. Yahoo europe is a real operating company rather than a sales subsidiairy.

      Cons

      long working hours, frustration at tolerance for people not to do what they should.
