Positive Reviews From NEC Employees

  • What did you like most about the interview process?
    I appreciated the opportunity to showcase my skills, engage in meaningful conversations, and learn about the company culture, which helped me envision my potential contributions.
  • What makes you most happy at work?
    Collaboration with supportive colleagues, achieving goals, continuous learning opportunities, and contributing to meaningful projects bring me the most happiness at work.
  • What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
    Our company culture fosters collaboration, innovation, and inclusivity, creating a supportive environment where diverse ideas thrive, empowering employees to grow personally and professionally while making a positive impact.

Constructive Feedback From NEC Employees

  • What does the leadership team need to get better at?
    They need to adopt meritocracy and stop nepotism.
  • Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
    Less qualified people who end up ruining projects earn way more than hard working people with proper qualifications who help get the projects in the first place. On being questioned why, the only answer HR has is affiliation to a school/university or "experience in industry".
  • What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
    The coworkers are either people who are struggling because of nepotism and planning to get out, or well established people in the company who keep getting benefits and good appraisals because of their friends.
