Reactie van Synthesis Technology
10ySynthesis’ core value is “trust” and we take it very seriously. When it comes to employee and client relationships, our ultimate goal is to nurture a trusting relationship that flows both ways. We have never and will never ask for fake reviews to be published on this page. If you’re concerned about any of the reviews you see here, we encourage you to talk with us in person to judge our people and culture for yourself.
In terms of training and documentation, there are systems currently in place that are continuously improved upon, using employee feedback as our guide. We have a five-year veteran currently spearheading our employee training and onboarding program. Commenting of code is encouraged and we’re focused on keeping system and instance documentation up-to-date. We are currently working on exciting architecture and UX enhancements to make user experience better for both employees and clients. As we update our code, we strive to do so using methods which are reusable and simple to maintain.
One-third (1/3) of our workforce has been with us for five (5) years or more. We have a lot of talent within our four walls and we’re very proud of it! Although we meet the average rate of attrition for a company of our size, we are always working on ways to retain our employees and minimize turnover.
During production (The first 2-3 weeks during the months of Jan, Apr, July, and Oct) stress levels can be higher than normal, as we are working hard to help our clients reach their timeline goals. If it takes extra hours to complete the job, employees can finish up their work at the office or from home -- we are flexible with employees on how and where they get their work done.
In the second half of 2015, we hired a dedicated HR consultant who is currently updating our employee handbook and working in tandem with employees and ownership to improve and document our growing benefits package. Check out our careers pages for details on benefits.
In terms of performance reviews, Synthesis does have a formal review process (at 5 months and annually on the employee’s hire date) to keep open communication between employee and manager. In addition, employees are encouraged to provide feedback at any time, as our ultimate goal is to make Synthesis a great place to work! We can only do that with open communication, so we thank everyone for their input.
