Maxis Communications Employee Reviews & Ratings

Tiring as not all customers were polite

work life balance is not the best

The cafeteria food options could be better.

There isn’t really an office culture

no negatives for amd, superb company

The worst manager in the world

need more training for new hire

Long hours and EXHAUSTION in some teams

long work hours with little to no pay incentives BU dependent

Low base salary. Need to increase pay

The old AMD culture is not what it once was. So much hiring in the last few years from so many other companies.

depending on your reporting line manager, exposure to higher management can be tough sometimes

No work life balance here

Work is not challenging or inspiring, infrastructure is very poor, local IT is superb, but anything that depends on external IT is slow and poor, no strong methodology or process, every project can be a completely new experience.

Too much politics, no alignment internally

Work life balance is challenging.

working environment can be pretty bad

Nothing to say much about

Sometime you may get pressured.

Pay should be better and more comparable to other tech companies in Austin

Work culture, communication, management, inclusion, team

Bureaucracy, Micromanagement, team specific dynamics

* Salary was not competitive. * Expectations were unrealistic and too much "good ole boy" cronyism going on in my group. This was from the 2001-2005 timeframe and that team has all left for greener pastures.

-Executives do not care about employees -The most outdated HR processes and tools myself and others have experienced in our career -Leadership is not invested in employee’s success -Leadership puts company at extreme risk due to lack of knowledge of labor laws -Toxic work environment -Lack of support and collaboration across groups

Hiring manager didn't know what she wanted during hiring, she was assuming that people could perform any skill of task, that's why she was simply put she wanted a people who has experience in relevant business domain knowledge. After hiring, she expected people could perform technical skills to help her IT dept's technical personnel to solve technical issues. Then she was simply firing people, she never consider people rice bowl. Life is very tough, why don't she is asked to do technical task as well and then be fired so that she can feel the pain of jobless and being asked to perform the task out of her skills.

It is too easy to get written up

Limited career advancement and opportunities

Low salaries for such an expensive city

too micro management from the top management

can increase compensation and provide rsus

Nothing much to think of.

Increments are less than what you can get elsewhere

Needs improve on compensation Perks and privilege has to be increased

Expected to go above and beyond all the time.

- Nothing much thar I am aware od

Good company with great people

Varying pay scales can be confusing

Nothing as I know. 4 days per office. Food is not free.

1. Extremely poor work-life balance - Fast paced but no proper management on employee's timeline. Employees are expected to handle as many projects as possible, with adhoc requests continue coming in as well but no extension on the timeline for initial projects. We don't simply get rest just because the CEO asked everyone to block the calendar, you still need to commit the timeline, answer calls after working hour, and work on your AL/ weekends/ holidays/ midnights. 2. Not a collaborative friendly environment. With the workload in the team, yet we are expected to work alone on multiple projects, because the team is so busy nobody can spend time to help each other. (Helping junior is definitely lower priority compare to committing project's timeline) Not all departments share the same culture, there are teams with healthy culture and friendly environment. For the one I referring to, would recommend to join if you don't mind working long hour, looking for challenge and wish to work independently. Otherwise, leave during probation.

Nothing yet, all good and sweet

Very slow upward progress Low salaries

Can be too fast paced for some

Some processes need improvement and others are quickly changing. Being flexible and adaptable is helpful. In some areas it can be hard to find growth opportunities within the company. Part of the problem is that some roles require additional technical product knowlege.

No Cons at this point of time.

Hierarchical, top down communication. Remuneration may not be worth for the number of hats

Management changing and it will decrease the benefit

Some of the worst compensation benefits compared to the competition. Feels like the work is not worth of the poor compensation.

No work life balance. Not much promotion.

Too low package compared to industry standards

- some Share benefits quality slightly degraded from Xilinx ones - Working remotely is not considered the de-facto standard
