- There is zero company culture. The People team do try to put on events and special weeks, talks, drinks, lunches etc in the company so it's not a lack of availability, but rather a lack of interest from many employees to get involved.
- A lot have been there for years and have their own little cliques, and make very little effort to welcome new people. This behaviour then rubs off on others.
- Managers do not make any effort to try get teams to gel and bond, and certainly don't encourage them to take part in anything that involves leaving the desk.
It's really disheartening to see the effort some people put in to try and get the team to feel more like a team, and then people just ignoring it, refusing to take part, feeling like they're not allowed etc.
- Very much an old boy's club, complete with misogynistic comments (and I heard a fair few) and a lack of respect for others.
- The tech is dull to work on and gives very little sense of achievement. You're working on a big, expensive product sold to big, rich companies. You're not doing anything particularly worthwhile, and I have heard a manager talk in an all hands about how ideally this software will help these big, rich companies cut lots of paralegal jobs and save money.
The salaries here don't justify the soulless work and it's not anything particularly innovative or exciting to work on either.
If you have the skills to work in tech, use them to go work on something more valuable.
There are some really talented, friendly, intelligent people in this company with bags of potential but unfortunately the toxic, suffocating atmosphere in iManage doesn't help them shine.
