Stay away - Programmer Stayhealthy Employee Review

Great Co-Workers, Amazing Management Team, Company Vision Defined and Full Speed Ahead!

Been here for 8 years and not one single complaint.

Some people wanted and delivered high quality software

Lies, lies and lies. Top manger tells us that company is backed financially by big players in health care like United Healthcare and implying that our jobs are secure. They hire four more people because we need to re-develop two applications. Within 2 months (some I believe were there less than one month) they laid off all the software engineers in one day. The reason? The company is moving to Linux from .net How is possible to hire four more people and all of the sudden you realize that you do not want to continue with them and the old team? All within months? Were is the responsibility towards the employee? Besides the four new people in the last 2 months three people were hired 8 months ago and a DBA about 5 months ago. I was told myself that there will be work for the next couple of years. Imagine that most of us moved close to work only to be told that the company after 10 years using .NET is changing platforms. All that money thrown away? I got to say that in the last year was more quality and achievements than in years before. Now that the quality of the team improved and we all saw tangible results the top management decides that all that effort was in vain. I will let the future employees find what was the reason as it totally eludes me.
