Pros
Good for: - If you have worked a career as a developer, you are well set for retirement and you’re looking to coast in the final years of your career. - If you are an app developer, arrogant, and think you are about to set the world on fire fresh out of college. - If you are looking for a visa just to stay in the US - You are in a truly desperate situation
Cons
- HR is non-existent. If you are on the receiving end of hostility out of the management team (which occurs frequently) there is nobody to report these issues to and hold superiors accountable. o Racism: this company embraces a racist culture. Black employees are the only employees that are drug tested. If you are black and working at Cyber Group look around and see how many others there are, the historical average is 0. During layoff periods black employees go first, white employees go second, and the friends of the management team are saved. • Applicable quotes from positions of VP and above • “I don’t want my daughter to marry a black man” • “Get your papers ready (Hispanic employee) Trump is going to be kicking you out soon” • “Is that damn Brit still in first place?” o Political Bias: Avoid this company if you are conservative, you will be ostracized and ridiculed for even supporting conservative businesses • Applicable quotes from positions of VP and above • “Why are you eating Chic-Fil-A? They donated one hundred million to conservative groups” o Sexual and Inappropriate humor: The amount of “locker room talk” at this company is appalling • Applicable quotes and actions from positions of VP and above • “How many p*rn sites do you think this kid has an account for?” • Action: Sexualizing and “stalking” social media pages of attractive colleagues at partner companies - Management Style: o Feudal: Management only values you for what you can offer immediately. You will be squeezed until you either latch onto a project where the company is in such financial distress they cannot afford to get rid of you, or they pass you around like a dirty needle with no chance of upward mobility. There’s really no good situations in this company o Zero training: You will have to learn a role with zero insight or knowledge into what you will be doing. Obviously failure is still your fault. o Racist: As I said above, you are treated the way your current project VP views people of your skin color. - Product Delivery: o As you can imagine, the company does not put out quality work. Why would they move to be captive under Salesforce if the money was rolling in? Because this company hunts rats, not deer. The only clients you will be working with you will be ashamed to be working with. Respected companies end contracts with Cyber Group after 6 months to a year. - Employee Satisfaction: o Terrible. They say “Competitive wages” but that’s competitive to the low end of the scale. o The “reviews” that the responder is touting employees are pressured to fill out all 10’s o Bonuses are rare and yearly bonuses are almost always delayed 6 months to a year. The “95% of bonuses are paid” stat from the responder doesn’t state these bonuses are paid anywhere near the promised payment time. o The prior review saying you will be placed on multiple projects and only get credit for one is 100% true. You will have a manager say they need you to sit in for them on their 7:00 am and 10:00 pm meetings and then never approve the hours you bill for it. Nobody is ever aware you were the one spending the late nights and that is by design. o The only employees who talk well about Cyber Group are either reliant on the visa Cyber Group is providing, or they are in a desperate situation such as a single parent and need the job. Nobody chooses to work here; it’s the last resort.
