Genetec reviews

- Highly incompetent middle management that have zero technical knowledge and live in the “back in the days” mentality while the world is evolving. To cover their incompetency, they have each other’s back and make sure to demean those that are. To get along with them make sure to laugh at their jokes and agree with their decisions. What is even worse, is that upper management is completely aware of their ignorance and behaviors so they just move them around between teams with every reorg. That creates a big question mark. - If you are an intern that might be a good start for you. This company depends on interns to implement the work since professionals flee very fast or they just “vanish” depending on the manager that they end up with. - They promote people with couple of years of experience with no people management skills to team lead or management positions because again experienced or knowledgeable people don’t stay long. - Inconsistency of the levels of evaluations, promotions and hiring between different teams because of the lack of proper experience amongst team leads and managers. - The tech stack is getting old compared to how fast technology is evolving. - Low salaries compared to the market - Full return to the office is coming very soon

Reading other reviews, it seems you either love it, or hate it. It highly depends upon the product/department and manager you end up working with. This feels like a small company, trying desperately to become a large, scalable enterprise, however they miss the mark in several respects; -Micro-Management is common -Inconsistent team culture and expectations across departments (which leads to inconsistent reviews) -Poor company communications; you never find out about people changing dept or changing company and dept goals unless you hear it during lunch -Inter-product competitive atmosphere although the company is attempting to unify its product suite (it is unfortunately not succeeding here) -Very unpopular back-to-office policy which may benefit some, but definitely not all -Lack of promotion/career development opportunities -Lack of cooperation between departments and teams -A very obvious "old-boys-club" management team -Very high turn-over with colleagues simply "disappearing" frequently and not being replaced -Low salary and continuously increasing and changing job expectations -Ever increasing workload due to poorly thought-out re-orgs and employee attrition.
