New World Systems Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"I've been working for this company for 3 months, so far so good. People around me are very helpful and friendly. Upper management are making positive changes to the company that were surprisingly nice, for example, they just added one full week of vacation to almost everyone including new hires, that is you will get 3 weeks of paid vacation in your first year of working for the company, and every year there after you will get one extra vacation day (max 20 vacation days). I see developers playing Ping Pong using a smaller table, right next to their development stations. The company have arguably "the best" Public Safety Software and there is a ton of learning opportunities. Also, the company will be moving to state of the art facility by Oct 2015 which will be even better."

What don't you like about working at New World Systems?

"Management cannot be trusted. You cannot believe anything you are told by management. Outdated and oppressive work rules. The HR dept is a corporate gestapo. Constant upper management churn has created an unstable and negative work environment. Independent thought, innovation and indivualism is crushed. The only way to get ahead is to conform, be silent, never offer a new idea or stand out in any way. If you are a talented, skilled performer the company will suck you dry and leave your career to wither and die. No flex time. no telecommuting. No trust in employees. There are almost no vertical growth opportunities. Come work for this company and lose who you are."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"As other posters have said, there is no point in offering any advice to managers. Any form of feedback or comment is viewed as disloyalty and ingratitude.
