"0 innovation, 0 carrier"
Pros
- no strict working hours - enough time for your personal "stuff". ( I had a french kid by my side watching youtube 6 hours per day). - Sophia Antipolis is a very nice place (if you have a car!). - Full of young nice people! - Good payment. - Is the french riviera!!!!! - Good place for having first slots filled on my CV (pls don't stay). - Good people for normal french people who want to live on a nice calm place inside a brain-dead stable job.
Cons
-Terrible commutation, more than 1 hour to get home on public transports. -Managers aren't real managers, and decision making is made by clowns. -Dev infrastructure is the worst kind. 0 Design patterns or architecture. Spaghetti code. No documentation. No functional knowledge. Archaic methodologies and sloooooow procedures. - No real growth in carriers. - They see contractors as objects, not human resources. - Elitism. - The English spoken by several higher ups (taking appart the french accent issue) is kinder-garden level like. - A terrible choice for any transport company. - nice vacations
