Pros

It depends on the project usually, the work-life balance is good. The bonus usually will be more than stated in CTC, even in the covid time when the company had no revenue, they paid the stated bonuses. Deadlines are flexible mostly they agreed to developers' estimates. So if you are not over-ambitious and are satisfied with regular hikes which on average is around 7-10%, and satisfied with no promotion then you will enjoy it here.

Cons

Again this also depends on the project most of the projects are good but I was unfortunate. -Their project tech stack was old and they hired me saying we are migrating, but the team in Bangalore doesn't work on migration. And they keep on selling the same pitch to every new joiners. - Scrum Master and managers mostly care about tasks to be "marked" as complete and not the actual completion so that it looks good on their board, they do not care for the quality of work. - While hiring they assign roles based on years of experience, for eg- 5.5 yoe will be SDE 2 and 6 yoe will be SDE 3 though the interview rounds will be the same, expectations are also the same. But once you in and if you ask for a promotion, they give almost impossible tasks. Like SDE 2 were asked to do all Scrum master like activities plus his own tasks to get to SDE 3. Even SDE 3 doesn't do all that. - Lots of micro-management, a lot of follow-ups, and a lot of meetings, barely get 2-3 hrs to do actual work. - Upper management shows themselves very nicely to non-managerial employees, but they will force managers to put pressure on employees. - Again they will give yearly objectives so much that you can never complete that and therefore you can never ask for good ratings and promotions. I had so big a list of pointers that I took 30 mins just to read it. - If you raise your concern about work, or work environment they will try to avoid it by giving some lame replies or false promises until and unless you resign. - I m not saying you can not get promotions or good ratings, but you have to be a workaholic, forget about the importance of your opinions, and just do what the manager says and create something which can make your manager look good at the upper level.

Horrifying Experience

Pros

Great Offices spaces in Bel air Profit sharing and company shares Vacations are approved without discussion CE is interesting

Cons

Working in this company has been a horrifying experience. I worked in a department where they encourage a toxic work atmosphere. There was a lot of politics and discrimination at the team and management level. The software which was built was of old and unknown technologies and the newcomer accommodation was not organized and mostly not done. It is definitely not a welcoming environment. As a south Asian woman, I faced severe bullying and pressure both from the team and the management. It affected my mental health. I sought help from HR and management but unfortunately, my concerns were not validated and ignored. I consider myself very unfortunate that I worked in this environment. Amadeus as a whole suffers from management issues.

Pros

* Pretty decent work-culture, decent health & other company benefits * Few teams have good work and technology stack. Otherwise, it would be like any other tech team elsewhere implementing features. * Policies are pretty good, but it wouldn't hurt to fine tune to the employee needs and industry trends. * Business demand in few units is relatively better compared to other travel companies and has the potential to bounce back soon.

Cons

* Salaries were lagging considering how other product companies are evolving, and with new hires, there was a disparity creeping in. * Few teams are running with low man power and hence work could be demanding and stressful. * Not immune from the office politics and could be detrimental to the personal growth. * Callous attitude of the HR team (not always) in terms of handling the employee concerns and exit interviews. * Leadership is more worried about deliverables (and related numbers) over people. I hear it is improving in some product teams. * Perks have been reducing over the years
