* Great efforts made to dump US employees and hire engineers in the EU and Central/South America. Entire US based teams were dropped at once with no real effort spent to trying to find them a new home in a company with nearly 10,000 employees.
* No employee reviews. No raises. Doesn't seem to just be a department thing. It seems more companywide and purposeful. This for sure impacted teams for much longer than a year (24+ months of employment without a review or raise while the company spent hundreds of millions buying and absorbing multiple new companies). This for sure impacted teams in the US and in Mexico (huge company, I didn't work with everyone, but it impacted both teams I interacted with).
* US CTO left the company as a protest to the direction the company was moving in which gave them a green light to do more negative things.
* US Senior Tech Director left on the same day as the CTO.
* No real care given to teams of people in terms of career growth (outside of the lack of reviews and raises). For about a third of my time with the company my team had no one to report to in any meaningful way (to help with career goals). I had a rotation of 5 different managers (US CTO, EU CTO, a Senior Tech Director, and two others who were Tech Directors) and many of them had no bandwidth to do any kind of career development meetings on a regular basis. 5 managers in 2 years. Most of the managers didn't provide any detail to the following managers about performance or strengths or areas for improvement (normal work stuff) so each started with a blank slate, then it would start over again.
* My final paperwork was a nightmare with multiple separate individual errors from the HR department (in two years I didn't have a single bad code push, but they weren't able to pay me the amount they said they would, when they said they would, make my final paperwork visible to me, and retrieve their own hardware from me without problems at each stage).
* People on teams I was on spent (literally) years trying to get to other teams and do different work and they were always told "later" or "soon" and this went on for literally years. There was no real opportunity for growth (in addition to not getting regular meetings for career growth, and in addition to not getting reviews or raises).
