Pros

hard to think of any, maybe the quantity of free time

Cons

rotten people - accusing, mistrust, dishonesty, two-facedness, gossiping, jealousy, back-stabbing, brown-nosing, bullying, hysteria, ganging-up, screaming, finger-pointing - even among 'friends'! no one trusts no one. completely mental atmosphere - the slightest thing is all they need to start viciously covertly hating and scheming otherwise it's a very boring and pointless job

Pros

a family-friendly company - stable job with a lot of free time, not demanding at all

Cons

ambitious, dynamic people with a high standard - stay away the most incompetent 'developers' and 'managers' I have ever encountered very political on all levels - distrust, trash talking & backstabbing are common

Pros

+ Not very demanding, steady job. + Very relaxed atmosphere (and I mean _very_), a typical day of a typical Amadeus developer: 9:30 - arrival to work 10:00 - 10:15 - coffee break 12:00 - 13:30 - lunch 13:30 - 14:00 - coffee break 16:00 - 16:15 - coffee break 18:00 - go home + Great work/life balance. + Really sunny area. + Mostly friendly people.

Cons

- Not a very demanding job - it's not a place for achievers and dynamic people. - Just like at any other mediocre big company - politics, many small-minded people. - Most are not exactly experts on coding or management. - Severe lack of management and people skills on all levels - confrontation avoidance, lack of communication, occasional yelling. - People trash talk each other behind their backs and form cliques, management plays along. - Very very slow career progression or none at all. - For many people Amadeus is the only employer that they ever had. - Core technology is quite oldish and in-house, and over-all not very exciting. - Typical work distribution: 45% - bug investigation 45% - meetings about specifications and work coordination with other teams 10% - actual coding - Serious problems with transportation in general; rush hours in Sophia are the really bad. - All around it's nothing but villages and small towns (!!!). - Salaries for developers are quite low. - Everything takes ages. - Many people, often straight from universities, have far more confidence than knowledge - it's like working in Idiocracy. - Distrust, backstabbing, slander and fakeness are more common than at any company that I worked ever before.
