Pluspunten
Good technology, challenging work, good opportunity to sharpen technical and all-round skills. Even entry level postions involve a lot of responsibility, including liasing with other technology teams, coordinating release schedules besides technical competance with system software design.
Minpunten
Middle management leaves a lot to be desired. Frequent changes in direction, last-minute surprises and crisis mode operation are de riguer rather than the exception.The problem is exacerbated by unrealistically aggressive schedules, lack of planning, shortage of resources and setting of unrealistic customer expectations by marketing. As a result, most of the engineers routinely end up working very late hours with litte appreciation of their outstanding effort
