Highly frustrating and many wasted opportunities, no respect from management whatsoever.
Pros
- Ok if you like travelling - Some neat products - Interesting space to be in - Lots of potential to learn new stuff
Cons
The company is looking to sell some core business units. All employees have been divided up according to a game of musical chairs (i.e. the project you were on when the music stops decides your future). There was no consultation and no discussion. This is quite typical of the management style witnessed during one's time at Openwave. For such a small company, Openwave acts incredibly arrogantly, and it is no surprise they are being broken up and sold off in this manner. There is a big divide between senior management and the regular employees. No one is listened to, and employees are treated like they don't matter whilst the (very well paid) senior management continue to steer the ship in the wrong direction. Good people either leave out of frustration, or get made redundant during one of the frequent RIFs that happen.
