CME Reviews

- Salaries are the lowest in the region for tech jobs. - Usually salaries dramatically decrease over time when translated into any stable currency (like USD) when the local currency receives a hit (forget about paying off your debts or going on vacation if you are here on an unstable period). - Organization is messy, clumsy and all in all lacking character and initiative. - no backup plans, impromptu is the policy for core topics that affects the employees on their work agenda (local servers, testing devices, work equipment, network configuration, ISPs). - Work essentials are missing, there are cumbersome procedures in place to solve daily issues like internet stability, upgrading specs like RAM or changing your broken headset. - most of the perks of software factories are non-existent or hard to get, like work from home on regular useful basis, portable computers / laptops, or discounts of any kind. - the office is enclosed and gloomy. No garden, no green areas, no place to smoke a cigar or breath fresh air, no common leisure areas or facilities (or old and crippled). Group activities are not usually encouraged. - could literally keep going forever.

hire people for positions and work with other positions that require higher salaries. racism against people from outside Lebanon. lack of appreciation for your work. awful project managers and leaders. a sudden layoff for employees for most of the teams without notice, they said we wouldn't lay off anyone and they just decided to change working stacks, it surely was planned based on evidence like scheduled meetings to these announcements and delaying the raise, etc. (it's ok but very unethical behavior). There is no clear system for raises and bonuses they delayed it until they lay off the teams. Just don't trust them.
