FLO | AddÉnergie Reviews

Employees frequently experience burnout due to high workloads and inadequate support systems, leading to decreased productivity and morale. The company has a history of abrupt layoffs, causing uncertainty and distress among employees, especially when done without transparent justification. Flo terminated many of the factory staff just a week before Christmas without consideration for the impact on individuals and their families, creating a sense of insecurity and betrayal among employees. While other teams had their bonus still and additional advantages for Christmas. Inappropriate behavior during company events often goes unaddressed, fostering a culture of impunity and discomfort among staff. Promotions are based on tenure rather than qualifications, creating a sense of unfairness and discouraging employees from striving for advancement based on merit. HR often fails to advocate for employees' interests, leaving many concerns unresolved and causing confusion due to a lack of clear communication. Additionally, there is a pattern of distorting the truth, eroding trust in the HR department and company leadership. Managers spend too much time in meetings and micromanaging, hurting team productivity. They need to work smarter and give their teams space to excel! Managers claiming to work 9-5? More like half that, if even! Setting a poor example for the team!

Don’t go there. This is the worst company I worked for as a software developer. Incompetent people, some people having “architect” title, would be medium software developers at most in other serious companies. You will spend most of your time maintaining old terribly written software, doing QA and anything else than developing actual features or learning things, I bet you will even lose your own skills. Management doesn’t seem to care about this despite many people leaving. Also, something worth mentioning, they have closed culture, I am not sure but you feel that they prefer keeping everything French and avoiding anglophone candidates. There was an anglophone guy, meetings were in French, he didn’t understand a word, no one seemed to care. Very sad for a company working in a great field and a very interesting project. Too much bureaucracy, people talk and meet more than work, discussions kind of “we will/plan to do this and that” and end up doing nothing. My worst experience so far.
