Pros

- Salaries are significantly above average - Seniority of the team is high - Health insurance is excellent - Regular offsites - Good and talented colleagues - Data-oriented practices

Cons

- Senior leadership changes their minds on strategy every two months. - Lots of projects are left unfinished due to constant changes in strategy. Ultimately, we waste energy and money and frustrate the staff. - Every couple of months, there are new layoffs (and some hires, also!), leaving everybody constantly wondering when they will be the next. - There is no feedback channel to voice issues in the company, so the leadership doesn't even know how bad the employees feel (I wonder if they care). - Systemic issues are seen as individual problems, requiring the company to hire people ever more senior to navigate such a work environment. - Processes are confusing when they exist. Most of the time, people freestyle along. - Senior leaders tolerate toxic behavior among themselves, setting the tone for the rest of the organization. - The CEO is incredibly rude.

Pros

Very different work culture than most Latin American companies (moves super fast, global mindset, ownership mentality) Capacity to own big things and deliver high impact Great benefits (specifically health)

Cons

We have a culture of radical candor. That can be difficult to absorb at first, but if you can survive the culture shock, you are going to love it!
