Douleurs de croissance - Avis employé Employé (anonyme) Devbridge

It was great, but has since been acquired by Cognizant.

The culture changed once acquired.

Devbridge Group aspires to be a successful digital company and at times creates an atmosphere that is reflective of this. Additionally there are several perks, not dissimilar to other startups, like ping pong, Friday lunches, gym memberships and video games.

The actual pros of working for Devbridge start and stop with what I wrote above. Unfortunately, the company has issues with hiring and retaining good talent and it's reflective of serious problems stemming from senior leadership. The team of co-founders can't seem to get out of their own way. They are unable to trust their employees and because of this, micro management is rampant. There is also a high level of disrespect and dismissive attitudes toward the rest of the organization, specifically to women. The company also suffers from "bait & switch" hiring practices. It's not uncommon to be hired for one position, only to be shifted into another without a discussion. Others found themselves hired for mid-level positions with promising responsibilities but in reality, the positions were stripped down to entry-level tasks. Unfortunately, senior-leadership lacks enough awareness to recognize that they are setting their employees up for success. Instead, when someone leaves the company or is fired, it is communicated to everyone else that "they couldn't hack it".
