Pros

- Benefits - Multicultural environment - Location - Good overtime, late and weekends shift payments.

Cons

The company advertises with equality but the truth in office life looks different. Management is only stats focused. Your promotion prospects depends on how good you can fawn. In case of misconducts they call it a investigation but they don't considerate any evidence and support threats against co-workers. They only look for quick and unbureaucratic solutions and are not really interested in investigating and solving the problem. Some Seniors and TL are not sufficiently trained. Procedures often inconvenient. Stats are more important than the person itself.

Pros

- International environment, chance to interact with people from all over the world. - Great lunch with lots of variety. - Very social, easy to meet new people. - Nice working environment

Cons

- This company has a serious problem with middle management and favouritism. Favouritism is rife! Be prepared to become buddies with the important people if you want any sort of growth in your career. - Lack of transparency, secrecy around projects. - Lack of understanding of what high quality work looks like. - Politics

Pros

It is very easy to perform badly, devoting yourself to other personal projects

Cons

Lack of actual training or transfer of knowledge, most people lose market skills after two or three years of stagnation, and the salary is much lower than that of other companies. You will be judged by your social connection, not by your technical skills or products delivered
