MICROS Systems Reviews

Pros

Opportunity to learn many different technologies especially in customer facing development roles. Coworkers are for the most part very competent.

They appear to pay under industry and location standards. Overtime for show seems to be necessary to appear good to management.

Advice to Senior Management

Don't expect your workers to be grateful to have a job, if they were treated better perhaps your turnover would decrease.

Cons

Terrible management, treated as cogs not contributors, like working for big brother

Advice to Senior Management

Appreciate good work.

Pros

You get a job and a pay check. Company head office is Columbia, MD, a good location close to DC and Baltimore.

Cons

CEO believes that a good company is bad for employees. Work hours is tough. Management is time oriented, not task oriented. Very high turn over ratio.

Advice to Senior Management

A good company is good for employees. Your employees are not your slaves or prisoners.

Pros

Good Co-Workers, make the work day enjoyable, most customers are very pleasent to work with and can be very entertaining.

Cons

The pay with Micros is very below average, unflexable work hours, required overtime on moments notice, poor time managment of staff by upper managment

Advice to Senior Management

Pay the employees what they are worth, allow more flexability as incentive to employees that work evenings and weekends and on call rotations.

Pros

MICROS Systems offers health, dental, paid time off, 401k...all the bells and whistles that you would expect from a company of this size. There is unlimited growth potential with this company and the company continues to grow each year.

Cons

Interoffice politics play an important role in any office settings but especially at MICROS Systems. You must be comfortable playing the corporate game at this company. Senior management is excellant and very supportive. Mid-level management at the corporate headquarters can be difficult to work with at times.

Advice to Senior Management

The mid-management at the corporate headquarters could improve their attitude and professionalism when dealing with the satellite offices. The senior management always makes the satellite offices feel appreciated and valuable and I would like to see mid-management do the same.
