Company culture is very direct and it shows in projects and team mentality. Company evolves in areas that suits investments in a positive manner. Very productive work environment, collaborative atmosphere.

Bit of disparity in salaries within countries - EU vs. US. More job opportunities for EU citizens as there are more facilities overseas. EU citizens are posted to US but not visa versa.
