eMazzanti Technologies reviews

I have always prided myself on being an ambitious and very hard working employee, but Emazzanti left me feeling taken advantage of and, frankly, abused. The management has no concept of work/life balance and expects extraordinary, almost inhuman dedication to the job – in exchange for poor compensation and benefits, no flexibility or understanding of the demands of life outside work, being endlessly micromanaged, and no appreciation at all for how hard you do work. I am not even being hyperbolic in comparing this office to a sweat shop; the owner doesn’t care if you’re ill, or if there are 2 feet of snow on the ground, of if you have a personal emergency, you are still expected to be available for work, but don’t expect to be compensated for your time! In spite of being a technology company, you will still inconveniently receive a paper check on payday—but not a minute sooner than 5:00 PM. I could go on about the company’s lack of ethics and integrity towards its own customers, but if you’re reading here, you most likely are interested in the work environment above all else. In which case, I have two words for you: STAY AWAY!

The truth about this company is; the owner would sell his own parents if someone made him the right offer. And I'll bet it wouldn't have to be much. If you've worked at eMazzanti, I'm sure you've had the pleasure of socializing with a few co-workers, its only normal. Well at eMazzanti, the owner calls this an "Expensive Meeting". No-one at eMazzanti is happy, no one! Not the engineers, not the sales team, not HR. The owner is quite wealthy and I don't know if he's even happy. If you enjoy a vacation from time to time, don't work here, the accrual rate of vacation days is just depressing. Don't think about a sick day either and don't even Utter the words "snow day". You'll be expected to rent an SUV when it snows in the winter. If you think this is a joke, think again...that's eMazzanti. Quote from an email the owner sent out the day of a snow storm (1 foot of snow on the roads): "For persons less experienced in the region, allow extra time for your commute". The attrition rate is atrocious! When I first interviewed, I was told the attrition rate was close to 0. However, throughout my employment I watched new-hires come onboard and drop like flies. Long-term employees alike; well, long term at this place is about 1 year. Save your sanity, save your career, don't work here!
