A company that doesn't care for their people or talents. Just politics win

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Has a good environment. People are nice and there is a true purpose to help people with their products.

Cons

Very risk averse by nature. It's always the second to launch new products on the market. Always chasing competitors, instead of innovate and deploy new things. Internally, doesn't really care about it's people and talent is not valued. You must be very political to survive at this company. They are really freak about innovation. They can not handle that, because it brings changes. It's a hard environment if you want to balance your personal life with a good work,
