Avaya Employee Reviews about "salary"

Pros

There are so many smart people who work at Avaya. People are very nice, yes, you do have to work longer hours sometimes, but, I rather do it with people I enjoy working with. As the company is in the process of transition, there are so many opportunities for early career employees to learn, to grow, and to develop.

Cons

The compensation structure is not very great here at Avaya. You do not always receive a bonus or a salary raise even you have a great performance. Again, for early career folks, it is not all about money, opportunity and development are very important too.

Pros

The Best part of working at Avaya are the people.

Cons

Poor management. Benefits are not so good, salary not good. There are folks that have been working for 3+ years and still have not received salary increase. Motivation is down and there are folks that have quit and or talk about quitting. Does not matter how late you work, but need to be in the office at 8:00 a.m. You are watched at all times, it makes it difficult to be there. However, employees encourage each other. The folks that do have the incentives and above and beyond salary is the executives. When they decide on cutting cost, it's taken from the employees, not management. If you know how to sweet talk and kiss up you're favored, otherwise your no one.

Pros

Avaya might offer you good salary as attrition rate at Avaya has gone very high due to bankruptcy. New people are also not joining.

Cons

Frequent Leadership changes Frustrating work culture Short term thinking Fear of layoff Rumours Inexperienced people Sales Loosing deals due to bankruptcy No transparency by senior management Read more at thelayoff.com before deciding to join Avaya

Pros

1) Strong local team with a supportive culture 2) Competitive Salary (but often only on paper without taken the unrealistic targets into account) 3) Ability to work remotely and flexible

Cons

1) Management only focuses on bottom line results for their investors 2) Too many reorganizations in order to avoid accountability and transparency 3) Consistent downsizing while increasing pressure on remaining teams with unrealistic goals 4) Micromanagement & bureaucracy 5) No focus, strategy and direction

Pros

Work life balance is good. Initial salary at the time of joining is at par with market (But may not grow for next 2-3 years)

Cons

No growth. They do not do salary revisions after hiring the employees for almost 2-3 years. Also promotion is close to impossible unless you spend another 4-5 years in same role.

Pros

Good Base Salary and Work Remote

Cons

Poor Benefits and a lack of Leadership.

Pros

Super flexible work - 100% remote at this point Not micromanaged

Cons

Company and revolving leadership are all obsessed with cost-cutting Transition to Cloud and Subscription models are not successful Old-school (1980s) mentality about work Company culture is toxic and most employees are ready to retire Not agile in the least No innovation - always playing catch up to competitors Steady salary but almost no bonuses and no promotions over the last 8 years I've been there No training, no support - you're on your own to just 'figure it out' Other employee personalities are a major obstacle - pessimism about change abounds

Pros

The salary provided is good and the Tier III engineering community in the US is strong.

Cons

There is never any opportunity for career growth, either by way of new positions or in salary raises or bonuses.

Pros

good career growth and opportunities

Cons

Salary revisions and corrections infrequent

Pros

Great people, many whom have been around for a long time Interesting work Rewarding when you see your impact on the business

Cons

Used to be able to telecommute full time using our tools and showcasing our products, but now HR wants people in to increase 'collaboration'; we should be using what we sell to better market it No bonuses this year except spot bonuses No salary or Cost of Living increases again yet the cost of living keeps going up unbearably
