- As an engineer you need to justify to the boss why you need internet and laptop.
- Use old tools to develop software. Internet access under proxy, which has limitations, very hard to get to repo's.
- You have core period of time, which you need to be in office (9-12;14-16)
- You can be in home office (2x week), but you don’t get meal allowance, and on site you also don’t get meal allowance, they make you go to the canteen (you have no choice)
- They make you sign papers for projects your never worked for (to get more funds from government)
- They make you take holidays, full week of 15August and last week of the year (you have no choice)
- Career progression does not exist, they promise but nothing happens (you will get a raise of 1%/2%, if you are lucky)
- Projects are a chaos, no one decides anything and you play the ping pong (ask person 1, ask person n)
- Lots of meetings with political behaviour, week after week discussing the same topics.
- Impediments will be there for 1+ year, no one solves them and management doesn’t handle it.
- Eventually you do something, which will go to trash 2 months after.
- They advertise using latest tech and methods but in the end you fall in the corporate cycle.
- Management calls you nerd (search: 'ribas crominhos')
- Management implemented this dictatorship and I don’t see how you can avoid it.
Thank god I left!
