Pros

I originally did not have any intent to write a review, until it was brought to my attention that other negative reviews have been removed. You have a right to know. Let's see if this gets deleted. Decent gym facility Lunch on Friday Good people Opportunity to do all the work Due to confidentiality, details must be spared, but there is a case study here that deserves its spot in every MBA program It will offer the experience of a lifetime. I am very serious, and I am still very thankful for the opportunity. I could not have learned this much from anywhere else.

Cons

This review is for OVH US LLC (specifically Reston, VA office), which is a subsidiary of OVH Group (Roubaix, France). As a subsidiary there are constant communication gaps with the parent company located in France. Culture gaps, business culture gaps, and language barriers can be closed in time through mutual respect. I have seen that they are working on this, and I believe that this can be fixed. A flawed mindset from the US management team is their largest roadblock to success and happiness. After constant restructuring, the company has failed to find its footing and focus on the important tasks at hand. The objective of the restructurings have not been to streamline the workflow or to run with an efficient cost structure, but rather to pad and secure the lifestyles of those in the inner circle. The most recent restructuring (early 2019) reinforces the oligarchic governance where small insular group continues to reside in the epicenter. It seems every review that mentions this is being removed. It is hard to substantiate this without breaching confidentiality, but there is evidence. There are good people and hard workers at OVH US LLC, but they are constantly hindered by backwards and unfocused management. I am hesitant to write more or refine this review as it is likely it will also be deleted. Already removed quite a bit of information just to try to get this posted. Actually, that about sums up my work experience at OVH. You can work hard, analyze the weaknesses with intent to improve, but no one will want to face the truth. Unfortunate, because that is the first step towards success.
