Review for Autodata Solutions: Run far far away from this company

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Autodata solutions: Really none. Accept that you can get very comfortable here and accomplish nothing.

Cons

This is for Autodata Solutions. Interview process: Not so good. - They take just one interview to hire software engineers in most cases. It seems easy but it also does not attract skillful engineers. Software engineering management: Horrible: - They will match up employees with 10 hours time difference and expect them to login and take meetings at 7 in the morning or 9 in the evening. - Most of the management staff has been here for so long that they are completely disconnected from tech reality outside. They are happy running JIRA boards and effort estimations all day long. Thats all they care about. - There is rarely any new initiative in the company. People who have been here for long time would almost always push back against anything new. For example: We just want to maintain our on-premise servers and dont want to go to cloud... It is costly, security stuff, no talent blah blah blah. - They re-shuffle developers every few months and assign to different projects and teams. This became a huge headache since it barely gives you enough time to build value in any given team or project. - Most of the projects are on outdated tech stack.

We appreciate you sharing your concerns on Glassdoor. We do have employees in various time zones and attempt to collaborate at times that promote work/life balance. We support a hybrid work environment and do not require people to come into the office. We recently implemented “Focus Fridays” to minimize (or eliminate) meetings on Fridays to provide our team with more time to focus on their work. Managers also have regular one on one meetings with our team members (usually every other week) to discuss and address their concerns. Please know we take comments about management and internal processes very seriously and ask that you reach out directly to your HRBP or send an email to VoE@jdpa.com to discuss your specific concerns in confidence. Thank you, J.D. Power
