Good company - werkgeversreview Anonieme werknemer bij Lanware

The pros are pretty much limited to its location and *some* of the people that work there.

Aside from the odd friend you might make, unless you're friends with the "big cheese", you're going to go nowhere. Expect to be treated like yet another number and an expendable asset while they continuously reassure you that "we will do better". They won't. The events that the project managers try to organize are a nice touch, but there's little motivation from anyone to go, it's not really worth it. The pay is atrocious too, regardless of what position you're in. Oh, and also FORGET IT if you have a life outside of work. God forbid you need a flexible employer. Whilst working for this company you have 2 choices, suck up to the senior management or pray that nobody notices you. You'll have a horrible time otherwise.

Knowledge sharing was part of the culture so the place is great to learn from others. While it gets harder as the company grows most of the systems are designed well and in line with best practices / company standards. The level of access granted is the almost whatever you can prove you have the knowledge/skills to work with. Great social and friendly teams although the very top brass rarely joined for more than one drink. Office in Bank has great transport links and local food vendors. Allow for sideways training into other departments e.g Engineers to Project Managers, Service Desk Managers. Good Bonus based off performance. High standards for change request/ticket notes make them perfect resources for learning. Usually use the best technologies for the task instead of the cheapest.

High amount of dedication required. Salaries are generally below the market average for London. Harder for people to fit in if they cannot attend socials / dislike visits to the pub after work. Internal promotions are common but has a lot of competition and there is a small amount of politics in some of them. Lack of knowledge database. Lots of management changes recently Lacks benefits.
