Pros

Great people and a lot of opportunities to learn a lot! Next to this it has a good structure to get to know a lot of people. Most employees are on a high level and are really dedicated to work for the company. I love our mission! Improving people's lives through meaningful innovation!

Cons

Bureaucracy and with that it is slow with decision making. Next to this is the turn-over of people very high. I have seen three different managers in 2 years. I think that's not healthy.
