Politics and favoritism in IT - Applications Developer Cebu Pacific Employee Review

Great environment and culture and they will support you with all you need.

The salary is very low compared with other airlines.

The company is young but clearly innovative. The CEO is a great guy who tries to be very visible and accommodating to employees. The environment is "fun", the building is new and the majority of the employees are young--slowly but surely people are getting hired based on skills not tenure which is a very good thing. There's a lot of smart people here. HR conducts lots of training (and greatly improving in terms of modules offered and trainers hired).

Politics. Makes your job very difficult and draining. I've worked in other companies and I know there's always going to be some level of negativity and politics in any environment, but it is very high in Cebu Pacific. The aviation industry has to get rid of the seniority in its ranks. Compensation and benefits are low compared to existing industry standards. And work/life balance is very poor. I'm not sure if it's entirely the company culture or the Filipino culture but everybody is expected to work loooong hours despite obvious decrease in productivity. No union is allowed. You're on your own!
