Symantec – “Working for SYMC is alright, decent company, average pay, above average benefits.”
Pros
Nice benefits, flexible scheduling. Nice offices. Out of band pay raises. Senior level developers get very nice bonuses.
Cons
Limited vision and too much communication from management. Micromanagement. Way too many reorgs. Frozen salary for the last year for the majority of folks. Promotions seem based on how much you are liked by upper mgmt than actual skill. Junior employees get no profit sharing / bonus.
Advice to Senior Management
Spend less time reorging and forcing employees to sit through needless "Symantec is You" ra ra morale exercises.
