Pros

Great collaborative environment with competent, friendly people. Helpful community of IT people working to make a better product. Good company culture, no or minimal workplace politics, good work / life balance.

Cons

I started working at the company, when the lockdown started, since then I only saw benefits being taken away, with no alternative being presented. - Travel budget is non-existent now, before the pandemic it was common for employees to visit headquarters or attend conferences every other year. - Utility bills (internet, electricity) are not supported by the company. - Cafeteria allowance for fresh fruits was taken away. - In Hungary the company does not give allowance for HO furniture, however gives the option to rent office equipment from the local office. - Non-existing or not well communicated employee perks. I'm very disappointed, after working from home since my first day, I missed out on opportunities I signed up for and there was little effort to introduce any alternatives.

Pros

Exposure to different telco environments and advance telco tech.

Cons

Old School count the hours not the productivity management style. Management have absolutely no back of employees. Raising issues is offensive for management. No real career growth path if you don't have friends at right places.
