Pros

I had the chance to work with amazing, talented, committed people.

Cons

Even though at the beginning of the year a new company goal was set to become a software warehouse for the automotive sector they've just laid off ~300 people (~35% of the company) a lot of them are developers. A lot of in-house projects are now flushed down the toilet. The company is clearly not planning on developing any new, innovative products; it'll serve its existing customer with the least amount of people they can possible do until the contracts are expired. This company has no future, the two owners are major morons who had a chance to have a thriving company instead they used it as milking cow until they could. The management has no decision making power they are just puppets with strings that are pulled by the owners who listen to no one and do as they please.

Pros

Working for NNG was awesome. WAS. Nowadays it's not that good. There still are a few perks, though: - free mineral water - sorta-flexible time - free coffee (not too good)

Cons

The main problem of the company is that the code is a mismashed Frankeinstein's monster from hell, which was made with the "Deadline-driven development" process - and no major refactor has happened for years. This is slowing down development, and makes keeping on track a difficult feat. Upper management tried to tackle this (insert laughter here). Firstly, a Check-In/Check-Out logging system was installed along with a new policy making it semi-impossible to get a Home Office opportunity. Pay raises were postponed. Then a ton of juniors and managers were hired. This was a bit bad for morale. Talented people, who actually wanted to make a difference, started leaving. Workload started to increase. The number of management interns multiplied. NNG is still not a bad employer (in Hungary's standards, that is), but we're on a downwards spiral, pushing the pedal to the metal. A few other points: - strictly non-vaper friendly environment - flexibility is just a catch word, my friend! Flexible work time means that you arrive in the office in the morning and it's flexible if you arrive at home on the same day - the office is on a friggin' hilltop - the code is full of vulgar language in Hungarian

Pros

The usual things the others mentioned before me... free parking, coffee, etc. I would like to emphasize the highly professional engineers and the great community. It was a pleasure to work with you guys.

Cons

- blahblahblahblah - all talks, no results - no vision, therefore no strategy (which would make the C level guys accountable). This is great for the lazy management, but makes life terrible at lower levels in the hierarchy. - internal fights and very heavy politics instead of finding out the right direction - no company values at all, I must say - transformation program every 2 years - and you know that this is just a pseudo action, it wont solve the real problems. But at least the actual leadership wins another 2 years in power.
