Great benefits, but not the same culture experience for Mexico teams

Pros

• Solid overall company with clear product vision. • Competitive benefits and generally good global culture. • Interesting technical challenges. • Colleagues are capable and collaborative (outside specific leadership issues). • Intent to support teams is present (resources, willingness to help).

Cons

• Cultural equity doesn’t feel consistent for teams in Mexico (less voice/visibility in decisions). • Team leadership (in my org) lacked openness to feedback and changed direction frequently. • Mixed messages on pace vs. urgency (planned “relaxed” sprints turning into rush deadlines). • Micromanagement tendencies despite stated support. • Decisions defended even against clear data, causing rework and friction. • Impact of a junior manager without sufficient managerial maturity.

Lots of resources to learn. Training. Meet great people

Cons

No value as an employee. No loyalty. Cycle through employees like a revolving door.
