Pros
International company Interesting industry Pockets of good people
Cons
The CEO has made clear he cares about one thing: your total cost of employment. And unless you are working out of India or another low-cost area, you are too costly—except, of course, for himself and buddies sitting in Geneva. And for the chaps in the US, well, he simply does not like you and seems willing to do anything and everything to get rid of you, even if it means shooting himself in the foot by pushing out the little technical talent SITA seems to have. The vision and strategy from the current CEO is we will make 2 billion and the avg of every employee will cost less than 50k/each a year. Not joking. Why didn't other brilliant tech leaders think of that? Make more money and pay the employees less! Its genius! As advice for those considering joining SITA, as long as this current CEO is at the helm, and assuming the company survives his miserable leadership, look elsewhere. He truly is horrible and uncaring about anything other than your total cost of employment. His leadership style is clearly starting to be seen in the folks he surrounds himself with. Toxicity is undoubtedly on the rise at SITA. An upside to him being at the helm is that the town halls are fun, but in a dark sense, this is so bad I am laughing sort of fun. SITA already had some quality issues with its solutions. It will be an entertaining train wreck to see what results from replacing many of the staff with low-cost new hires. I mean, if you can run a company with such unskilled management and leadership, why waste money on skilled talent? It's not like management will ever provide them with any vision or strategy that can realistically be executed. Instead, hire folks who make the immediate numbers look pretty, and then fire them when your non-existent strategy fails (making more money is NOT a strategy). You should be able to do that for a solid few years before folks catch on. Run, dont walk away from this company under its present leadership. Unless in India or some other low-cost area. Then jump aboard and milk this sinking ship.
