Interesting work let down by senior management

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Interesting, cutting edge technology. Staff are motivated and knowledgeable.

Cons

Senior management seem to be more interested in the share price than the staff e.g. latest pay increases deferred for 6 months, presumably in an effort to disguise the true cost of wages.
