Pros

Small company.. no dress codes

Cons

Now in times of the covid, the ceo (SAM), took the decision of fire all the people in mexico and other cities, he practically forced all employees to firm his own resignments ( he was using a third company ''to handle the payments'), maybe because he was planning to avoid to pay the law compensations in a future situation (like covid)....So practically he leaved everyone without work, in the middle of the covid crisis. The company is very proud of their culture and support to his employees, but honestly after doing that, i don't know how is that.. CEO thinks that he leads a big company with offices in san diego, mexico city, tampico and kiev, reality is that there is only a couple of people working remotelly, no offices.. he want to give the impresion of a big company...Currenlty, it is not

Thank you for your review, I appreciate you taking the time to submit your review. As CEO, I take every review seriously, and I do spend the time to evaluate how we can make the company better for employees, customers and partners alike. Unfortunately, COVID-19 caught everyone by surprise and hard choices needed to be made. Our employees in Mexico were furloughed for a period of 60 days with company funded partial pay and healthcare costs paid for. Within 90 days, everyone was contacted to return to work and the company now has more employees than pre COVID-19 levels.

Pros

Friendly employees and colleagues. Made lot of good friends with colleagues.

Cons

No growth in career. You will be stuck with the same kind of pay, benefits when you started. Mostly work is consulting basis. So, you will be on bench doing inside projects which aren't fun when there are no active projects. There is no good marketing team which gets new clients/projects to work with. The vacation time, pay and 401K they offer are a joke.

Thank you for your review. We value your opinion and take your review seriously. Given your comments, you haven't been at ObjectWave for quite some time. We are going through a transformation and as a result many things have changed. Many things that you mention in your review no longer exist. What I can say is that ObjectWave has moved in a very different direction and has many opportunities for the right people. We are growing rapidly and moving in a very positive direction.
