MSCI reviews

Blame game, Machiavellian politics between groups and individuals. Corporate culture is almost the opposite of teamwork; rather, people try to CYA all the time. There is a negative view permeating the company of “failure” be it actual or perceived. People are therefore understandably afraid to try new things, do green-field research and proof-of-concept projects, etc because of the risk of failure, which is inherent in these sorts of endeavors. Zero focus or value placed on career development; people essentially get stuck in their role with no opportunity or catering toward improving their skills or moving to higher levels on their career path. Non-technical managers hired to oversee technical functions leads to poor decisions, political battles, disenfranchised and frustrated staff. Focus on cost-cutting and maintaining margin means innovation does not thrive, since the focus is always on feature development that is promised to bring in new customers. Lots of jobs transferred offshore, which makes software engineering efforts difficult to complete and very inefficient.

- Always Risk of Job due to peer pressure from other locations. - Heavy politics due to regional set up. - No Control to local management. - Limited or no career growth and reason is company is not growing at all due to market sentiments.
