HTC reviews about "company culture"

Too many political concern inside the company operation.

Chairwoman indecisive and consistently makes bad decisions CTO is paranoid megalomaniac who can't design a product for his life, yet is allowed to design all products, ignoring input from marketing, sales, design teams. Chairwoman enables CTO CEO is unable to manage company under Chairwoman's control. Chairwoman laid off entire SF office and did not even give 2 weeks severance. Not even a modicum of care or gratitude towards employees. Due to poor management, company is doomed to fold. Taiwanese company culture is deathly afraid of failure and afraid to take any risks. All the while, CTO is allowed to release unproven, untested products that are extremely high risk because they are untested and unproven before tooling release.

Unprofessional Management is causing back to back failures, poor decision making and ineffective management is destroying the company

Pretty much all the pros are the cons. You have to travel to get things done. You have to be agile complete agile because things change daily.

The process are old

The organization is mostly unorganized

No long-term strategic vision for the company. Constantly shifting priorities and budgets, based on quarterly (or even monthly) company performance. Knee-jerk and short-term reactions that undermine the long-term potential of the team. Little or no respect for the value of employees or the teams they build. People are just resources to be dialed up or down like a utility. CEO is easily influenced by the last person to have met with her. CFO oversaw several years of declining sales and received a promotion to "President of Sales" as a result, which is unreal. Half a dozen CMOs in the last 5 years. Incredible political tension between global and regional teams, which bleeds over into the office environment. Quite possibly the most toxic environment I have ever been a part of, and I'm glad to have left.

No work-life balance, the prospect is going from bad to worse

Low payment, overtime culture, no more
