Connexity reviews

On their business model side, things are not as good. They could definitely leverage much of the data they have been acquiring through the years and the takeover of symphony hasnt helped much.

1. Unless you try very hard to hang out and please the senior managers, your chances of career advancement are poor. And if you suck up, you have good chances even if your performance is not so great. 2. Big layoffs in summer of 2011, despite management's repeated assertions that layoffs are not planned. 3. Many of the best IT workers the company had, have left the company for other jobs in the last couple of months. 4. Outsourcing to India is in full motion. The parent company STG has a big outsourcing operation, so expect more and more jobs to be shipped abroad. 5. Management has lost credibility with the employees. In water cooler chats, employees are often talking about the lies being fed to them. 6. It is true that the senior managers have kind of an elitist attitude and often come across as rude. 7. Senior IT managers have recently been treating employees with disrespect. It is been turning into a typical high pressure, low respect, low reason IT sweat shop. So don't believe the great things they say about themselves on their websites. 8. I feel obligated so say something about IT project managers since I noticed that other people have been doing the same. I thought I was the only one who had a negative opinion of them. Seems like many people dislike working with them, but just never speak about that because of fear of reprisal. So bottom line is, IT project managers are indeed incompetent, bossy and often pushy. They have no understanding of the work being done and that ignorance show up from time to time. I'm not surprised that the teams of highly educated, highly skilled engineers don't respect these PMs. But don't expect anything to change. 9. Overall I think it is not a good place for software engineers. It used to be much better, but no anymore. So stay away.
