Pros

Forward-thinking industry. It's probably is a great company in departments other than web development/product launch. Though, as an enterprise, they did have three layoffs during the time I worked there.

Cons

Contentious attitude from the VP down. Design reviews were conducted where the VP called the designers stupid and should go back to school. Horrible environment. One writer just walked out of a meeting and left a sticky note on his manager's desk saying he had quit.

Not sure we agree with your Heading statement. Our culture is dependent of teamwork globally. If we don't have solid teamwork, we wont succeed. We would have never grown into the #1 PC company in the world. It is a shame you had a bad experience in your specific team. I would have recommended that you contact this with your HR partner. Mutual respect is expected at Lenovo. Disrespecting anyone at any level is not acceptable here. Thank you for your time while with us...and we wish you had a better team experience.

Pros

Absolutely love my team, people, culture, and work events. Genuinely I can't think of any cons. 3 days in-person, 2 days remote. Best work life balance ever, and great pay. Even intern benefits are amazing

Cons

None that I can think of

Pros

Good place to work overall, kind people. Generally competent practitioners

Cons

Company is very slow to change. Executive leadership does not care about employee work-life balance at all. Was routinely expected to be on calls as early as 6AM and as late as midnight on the same day. When I raised concerns about sustainability, I was put on a PIP
