Nothing good about this company

Pros

Benefits are decent. Employees receive one day off a month. Great clients. Despite awful senior management, we have great colleagues who do most of the work around the office.

Cons

From an outdated office to an outdated website, one can tell how much the owners, Latha and Raj, put back into the company. Absolutely nothing. Deccan is only concerned with lining their pockets. There is a reason why our products look like they are from the 80's. It is because the owners do not want to invest any $$ to updating and making these products better. I almost feel like they are scamming our clients who happen to be Fire and EMS departments. These products barely work! The reviews are true. Deccan is a revolving door. The ones who leave on their own accord are the lucky ones. The rest are stuck here. No one wants to stay here. Upper management has fostered a work culture that's proven to be very difficult to work in. People constantly walk on eggshells. Fake it til you make it, I guess. If you are not on the 'in' crowd, be afraid that everyday could be your last day. Calling Deccan's senior management abusive and hostile is being too kind.

Pros

Their is very little in terms of competition which allows for overpriced products

Cons

The company is inadequately staffed, with staff completing critical roles such as HR background screening of new employees and therefore very unprofessional.

Pros

1. Ability to help a rewarding industry (Public Safety) 2. 1 Friday and 1 half-day (Friday) off a month 3. Community service is fun and great way to bond as a team.

Cons

1. Extremely out-dated office environment. The run down kitchen doesn't help either. 2. Lack of focus and organization at all levels at Deccan. 3. CEO, Latha Nagaraj, does not hide her extreme favoritism through the company. If you're not a favorite, you're on the deep water. 4. Deccan is very every man for himself. Managers hide behind closed doors and pretend to care about helping their team. 5. Work culture is one of the worst I've experienced. There are little to no interaction between colleagues beside work related items. When the CEO is in the office, employees keep their head down and walk on egg-shells. 6. There is utter lack of respect for Deccan employees. The CEO shows signs of extreme unprofessional behavior and at times hostile behavior towards her hard working employees. 7. Deccan products are clunky and out of date. I am not sure why clients spend so much $$$ on these products that barely work. We are constantly working on fixes and bugs to get these applications to work properly. 8. Sorrento Valley traffic is horrendous. 9. No flexibility in work schedule even though most of the employees are salaried. 10. Horrible benefits. We are not allowed to add spouse/family to insurance. 11. Very cliquey environment with the senior managers. 12. Management has shown lack of respect for our clients (ie. making fun of clients, talking about clients in a negative manner) 13. Make false promises to clients to get their applications completed on time or having upgrades to our products. 14. Cheap, cheap, cheap! 15. Pay is below market value. .
