Pros

If you want to be belittled, gaslighted, and overworked while spit at for voicing concerns, then this is the team for you. Big 'ole boys club with a totally incompetent Chief People officer who is very political and only here for a paycheck. Stay away from Abbyy it’s the worst job I ever had and a toxic working environment.

Cons

Managers are bullies, selfish with no respect for people. Terrible terrible.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We understand that it can be difficult to speak up about negative experiences and we appreciate your feedback. We are deeply sorry to hear that your time at our company was not positive. It is never acceptable for any employee to feel belittled, gaslighted, overworked, or spoken to disrespectfully. We want to assure you that we have processes in place for employees to voice their issues without fear of retaliation and we encourage you to reach out to our People department or a member of the leadership team so that we can address your concerns and work to create a better work environment for all employees. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, we take this very seriously and working on it.

We are always looking to improve our management practices and to ensure that all of us are equipped with the right skills to lead and thrive. We wish you all the very best in your future endeavors.
