I worked at Globant for 9 years and always got great feedback from both clients and managers. On almost every project, clients were so happy with my work that they’d bring in more Globers to the team because of my performance.
But things went downhill. Globant is now all about assigning the cheapest developers from around the world, so there’s no room for senior developers with solid experience in the US. They also came up with this rule: if you don’t find a project in 59 days, you’re fired with zero compensation. That’s what happened to me, no interviews, no help, tools for finding projects that would barely work.
They canceled my green card process which I have been waiting for 3 years. When my H-1B grace period was about to end, they promised a flight home if I didn’t get a new job. But when I asked for it, they just said they couldn’t buy it in time; even though I gave them almost a week’s notice.
After 9 years of hard work, I got nothing in return. No compensation, no respect. Globant used to be great, but now it’s just another company that doesn’t value its people.
