Talknology and definitely not a Technology company

Lead engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Base Pay & Benefits, Resources at your disposal, like Mac, AWS and exposure every enterprise software you can imagine as a techie.

Cons

I've worked in technology companies all my life before joining C1 and trust me, there's not a single trait in this company to qualify remotely as tech company. * So called, distinguished engineers who hardly codes * Too much politics with way too many CBS walking around thriving on Here-say technique. Lies and un-ethical behavior during appraisal/calibrations * Awesome vision from top management but missed opportunity because of too many C grade players in middle management who believes in cronies culture

Pros

Great place to learn new skills.

Cons

Toxic management in IT with backstabbing and playing games with people just because they can. It is really sad. Spent many years in company only to be treated so poorly that I left. They seem to of forgotten about there long term employees.

A Joke

Senior manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

You get a mac You get free coffee You learn to lie.

Cons

I wouldn't be surprised if this company kills itself in coming years. The system is filled with mediocre management who has no clue of technology. The remaining are the H1b's who were hired full time. They lie, manipulate and are shameless to the core and will do anything to survive. Since the company culture is to hire & fire, its normal to see folks vanishing without trace...Due to this fear no one trusts anyone. Imagine working in a team/teams who just wants to survive at any cost.
