Pros

fast growing org and specialized in CE, very inspiring founder, great place to work as a junior to get to know the field. Lots of opportunities and dynamic team.

Cons

Bad management and HR support in HQ. Our local office was once a strong team and we need a senior position to handle the high-level tasks. The person in the end on board is not capable at all and the whole team (10 people ish) left after him. The team had sent 360 review to the leadership but they did not take any action. Because they don’t care. It is a pity that EMF lost so many talents and lucky for those who found much better place to work.
