Pros

People can just relax and not get noticed. For those who would like to work from home or come for coffee and chitchat this is the place to be.

Cons

Salary never grows. Never! There is a botched Pbc process that gives the lowest number just to keep the headcount of people. Your work is never valued. Young people are hurriedly hired to meet the hiring targets (a govt funding ripoff really) and left to rot the rest of the population. No real work is done. Managers have their favorite characters who get the opportunities and get the end of year bonus. If you are a girl and want to get maternity leaves, yes get into this office and disappear. No one cares.

Pros

-if you have been out of the market for a while and want to get some experience, come here. It is really easy to be hired. -Good if you want to improve your language skills (German, French, Spanish, Italian, Russian, etc.). You will get the chance to speak to native speakers on a daily basis.

Cons

-Lowest salary in the market for a similar position (and no benefits at all). -Unexperienced people is assigned to key roles they are not prepared for. -Most of the managers have never had International experience and that can be perceived in their daily decisions. -The company has high respect for its customers and no respect for its employees.
