-Core and the most experienced people in the Melbourne office are long-termers, seriously 15-27 years in the same company. Ahh ahh, this is the root cause of all problems.-Each department has such long-termers which stop anyone else to succeed
- Clearly, the core management lacks international experience, as this is the only place where they have spent their lives.
- They have systematically created an environment of no support, knowing that it is a complex product and people would fail without support
- Those who work hard and somehow try to establish, are killed by the long-standing friendships. XYZ is bad because ABC and DEF think so. No questions, period.
-Most engineers who joined in the last 3 years have ALREADY LEFT
- With about 60 people working, there is not a single HR. You have no voice.
-Extreme level of micromanagement, counting even 15 minutes of your time. You only work for the release graph.
-Middle managers know (almost) nothing about the product and are just there to manage time and create perceptions, which the VP would blindly believe.
-The local management brings a change in the processes every now and then, keeping everything same at the core, oldies getting the cream, and newbies working hard.
-Only good for freshers or those getting no opportunity elsewhere.
