Pros

Interesting projects. Talented people. Interesting technological developments.

Cons

Promotions are based on anything other than skill, support, tenacity or knowledge. Too many charlatans steal credit for work done by others. Poor management is causing long working hours (up to 20-30 continuous hours). Human resources and management refuse to compensate for long-standing support for projects in favor of profits and economic benefits. Modern slavery! A clear management abuse disguised as fake smiles. Competent people are overloaded with work while incompetent people are not required to have the same quality and effort. There is no room to innovate without support. Too many master's degrees to disguise mediocrity in LATAM, It doesn't matter how good you are at something, or how much support you're giving to projects; only visible "leaders" get growth opportunities, even if they haven't contributed to the projects. If you feel competent in any way, don't waste your energy and talent here. The opportunists are in the lead. Too many opportunities to waste your time. Leaders want you to be involved in many activities (not projects) but they do not care about your deadlines or your time management. As compensation you will receive 2 cents more than other companies that are not worth much in the long run. The company promotes values no one is applying on a daily basis. In summary, this is the most toxic and dishonest company in which I have ever worked.
