Pros

Hybrid Work. Some good team members if they haven't been laid off already

Cons

It’s a public service to warn anyone thinking of joining this company. The image they project looks modern and friendly, but inside it’s small, cliquey, and toxic. Middle management runs everything. They are arrogant and insecure, promoting their friends and shutting everyone else out. They talk endlessly about teamwork and inclusion, but none of it shows up in how people are treated. There’s a clear lack of diversity, and communication feels like talking into a void. Feedback is vague and often condescending. You can give everything you have and still be told you fell short for reasons no one can explain. The technology is outdated. Almost everything depends on IBM’s old Tririga platform, and most of the work is just patching problems and pretending it’s innovation. The pay is low, the benefits are bare, and the so-called “fun culture” feels forced and juvenile. Layoffs have become constant, and they often target the people doing the real work because they earn a little more. What’s left is burnout, confusion, and a company that’s clearly sinking. This company will break your soul before ultimately laying you off.

Pros

Good team members but many were let off during multiple layoffs

Cons

I am still working at Tjene Corp, but honestly it has been very hard time for me and many coworkers. There was many layoffs, and people who worked many years and gave everything to company were just gone suddenly. Some of them were the ones who trained me and always helped with kindness, even when they were busy. It was very painful to see them go, while some new hires who didn’t contribute much yet were kept. It felt not fair, and many people felt scared and confused. There was no clear reason, and nobody explained why this happened. After that, the atmosphere changed a lot. Before, I felt this company was warm and people cared about each other. But now, everything feels cold and nervous. People don’t speak honestly anymore, everyone is worried, and many are looking for new jobs in secret. There is no motivation, only stress and quiet fear. Even if you work hard, it doesn’t feel like it matters. There is no trust in leadership anymore, and no one really believes things will get better soon. Many people, including me, want to leave, but job market is very difficult now. So we stay, not because we feel good here, but because we have no choice. Every day feels heavy, and it is not the same company I joined. If you are thinking to work here, please be careful. Maybe before it was good, but now, I cannot say it is a good place anymore.
