Pros

Beat starving - but not by a lot

Cons

IBM x86 sold Business Unit to Lenovo for purpose of closing down Ottawa office (announced spring 2015, executed fall 2015). 30+ employees affected. Work transferred to Taiwan. Lenovo did not love us long time.

It is hard to hear negative feedback associated with reductions that were difficult to make. We certainly wish you and everyone negatively affected all the very best. Thanks for the feedback.

Pros

Forward-thinking industry. It's probably is a great company in departments other than web development/product launch. Though, as an enterprise, they did have three layoffs during the time I worked there.

Cons

Contentious attitude from the VP down. Design reviews were conducted where the VP called the designers stupid and should go back to school. Horrible environment. One writer just walked out of a meeting and left a sticky note on his manager's desk saying he had quit.

Not sure we agree with your Heading statement. Our culture is dependent of teamwork globally. If we don't have solid teamwork, we wont succeed. We would have never grown into the #1 PC company in the world. It is a shame you had a bad experience in your specific team. I would have recommended that you contact this with your HR partner. Mutual respect is expected at Lenovo. Disrespecting anyone at any level is not acceptable here. Thank you for your time while with us...and we wish you had a better team experience.
