Geat small company, some small problems - Manager Synectics for Management Decisions Employee Review

Easy onboarding process with HR

No bad experience with the company at all

Synectics is the perfect place to work for someone who has young children or has to take time off when unexpected issues arise. It provides an extremely laid back and diverse environment and is comprised of many different nationalities and cultures within its work force. The environment is very informal and every day is "dress down Fridays" at Synectics They offer very flexible schedules and are very understanding when it comes to issues of sickness and other things like car troubles. Many people leave Synectics to move on to other companies but they most often end up returning at some point in time.

Although Synectics offers a multitude of perks and a very casual atmosphere, after a while that doesn't make up for the substandard pay that you may receive as an employee of Synectics. Synectics is like a company of the "Haves and Have Not's". That is if you are in a higher end position you make a significantly large salary. However, if you are a general worker, you tend to receive sub-industry standard pay. The company structure of the company is such that there are not many opportunities for advancement. As someone else explained, you have upper management (Directors), then middle management, followed by general workers. There aren't many people who fill those middle managerial positions so there aren't many opportunities to advance unless someone leaves. Therefore, you can end up working for the company for many years in the same position with no opportunity to move up the latter.
