NCS/IP heading in the wrong direction - Anonymous employee New Century Software Employee Review

I work for the Integrity Plus division of New Century. Management takes care of you if you show results and willingness to get results and want to learn. Excellent use of activities to reward employees during the year. New office location Growing company that has a great business plan and goals Professional, relaxed, dedicated work environment that is open to input from employees

Going through growing pains internally (which happens during growth spurts) Make bonuses once a year and everyone on the same schedule.

Great scrum team - i enjoyed the people I worked with and the general atmosphere in the software development production floor Good work-life balance - as long as I did my job in 40 hours I would punch out consistently at 5. Sprint requirements were usually reasonable and not a 'death march' CEO is a well-meaning guy and seems to generally care about his people

Compensation far below market value (the industry hurting made this worse) Feeling of no advancement opportunity Very little room to grow / innovate Petty office politics and management styles double speak - saying one thing and not executing toxic employees allowed to effect the development process despite ubiquitous concerns expressed Somewhat inflexible work schedules - would have to report every time I wanted to work from home, even if it was for an hour doctor's appointment Lacks automated testing and antiquated quality controls in the agile process
