Advision Development Reviews

Don't believe the positive reviews, I'm going to start by saying this is the worst company I've worked for in my 20 year career, they changed their name due to their terrible reputation, and have a lot of complaints, and even lawsuits with the "ministerio de trabajo" if you are a good developer/PM/QA know they pay very well but you'll be out of there in no time. - They offer free lunch, mostly because the location of the office is so remote, you won't find a place to eat in a 2km radius - "Discount at a local gym" this means a small discount any group of 5 people can get at said gym -Free private medical insurance AFTER A YEAR!!! – Later you find out nobody stays in this company for more than a few months. - Referral bonus – kind of… they offer a referral bonus (if you are brave enough to refer a friend) they never mentioned how much, when will it be paid or how. - No working from home. Worst Work Environment This is hands down the major flaw in this company, there’s a so called CTO/Manager that will never talk to you, unless he has something bad to say about your work, you will never get a “Kudos” or “good job” from this guy, he will have zero trust on your knowledge and experience as a professional, no people skills to speak off, although he is the “leader” of the development team, he is no leader, he’s only someone that barks orders at people. For example, we had a meeting with our project manager, (a real professional) he goes on to say that he presented his resignation the day before alleging he was sick of the CTO, his unprofessionalism, and the way nobody in upper management was open to change the extremely messed up procedure that was in place. This happened after just 2 weeks in this place! The next week the “CEO” comes in and yells at one of the developers for eating breakfast at his desk (remember there’s is no place to eat in a 2km radius), the developers resigns on the spot, then upper management proceeds to call everyone on a meeting, where one of the topics of discussion was “what was allowed to eat at your desk” I kid you not. After this incident another developer resigned, when asked why he only said he was sick of someone there, Notice a trend? Then a QA resigned seeking a better opportunity closer to his place. Then a QA was fired by the CTO. Then the IT manager resigned, who was not getting along with the CTO and upper management in general. Another person had a disagreement with the CTO, not an argument just a difference of professional opinion on how things were handled, and the CTO will not talk to him for 3 weeks until he got him fired... You may ask “where’s HR in all of this?” well, we all asked the same question, and we had no answer. And so on until about 12 people left in less than 3 months, this is in company where only 60 people work! Upper management will scream and slam doors at each other, and they will call it a “challenging work environment” They will ask you for impossible deliveries and they will call it, “tight timelines” I know for a fact everyone there is constantly looking for a better opportunity, and the moment they get it they leave. If you see some positive reviews on this site, it’s only because upper management asked that we should leave good reviews. And the worst of all is that they will dispose of you at any time, so it’s just a matter of months between they will hire and you and you leave, just make sure you resign before they let you go, this is the kind of company that will trash talk you after you leave.
