Inspiring Environment : Great Technology & People - Avis employé Director of Alliances Predixion Software

it has been sold, so nothing to evaluate now

sold already, nothign to evaluate

The glory of the past is still visible (faintly) and few good people from the old team still work there.

Where should I start? [Strategy] The CEO went through at least 3 VPs of sales (and their teams) and I don't even want to think about how much was spent on that versus development / infrastructure. Next, he decided to layoff the development and test teams. In between, he made the VP of engineering and CTO leave, too. As of now, probably one or two developers are left (from the team that built the predictive platform and solution accelerator). [Benefits] Yearly salary increases, vacation accrual increases don’t happen. Unless you force the conversation, but not proactively. There is also this perception (in Aliso Viejo), that good developers wait lined up around the corner and are replaceable on a whim. [Operational excellence] Seriously deficient. No coherent policies/design for backups, VM host maintenance, software acquisition, hardware upgrades, network design and topology. Constantly asked to switch to a new demo or resurrect older demos.
