BBOXX Reviews

Dealing with product managers / project managers is very hard. However that stems from the fact that the experience of project management isn't there, and since this is still a relatively young company that is something you can forgive as they are still learning the ropes. That being said, sometimes the deadlines for requirements to be developed can be rather unrealistic.

Plenty of office politics in the company. Big reason why I left. Senior employees were often disgruntled and pessimistic about decisions made. Had a culture of blaming rather than ownership. Difficult to get things done up to a certain point as no one would answer for problems. This occurred up to team lead level, which made negotiations difficult for inter-team cooperation. This tended to occur amongst long serving staff - newer team leads tended to be cooperative and easy to work with. This improved over time as the team leads were rotated to non-management positions. This was not an isolated problem to tech development. In administration, the executive assistant was known to be difficult to communicate with - which made feedback to the CEO very tricky. However, this improved as various HR teams came in to help.
