Pros

Good for young professionals or with little experience

Cons

1. HR / is questionable. They let supervisors with no recruiting or cv screening experience basically hiring whoever they want. They seem to obstacle internal career progression. Considering the people hired in my team, I question their experience in selecting and choosing the right candidates. Promotions look like friendly based. Had to chase them to get a reply on a candidacy. The process has been quite stressful. 2. Leadership / I worked with a supervisor who proved to have no related experience and being incompetent on many different aspects of the role. Unfair divisions of the tasks among team members with the same role lasted for months and months. Despite having reported the situation together with mismanagement evidence and despite the consequences my department experienced at large in many occasions, no real action had been taken to improve the situation. Personal friends joined the team as freelancers with no translation experience causing consequences that affected the quality of the projects and their management. The team lack of a structure able to evaluate the job of the supervisors for the foreign languages they don't speak. No investiment in those team members who prove to work harder and better. Are they able to recognize them? Do they care? 3. Communication among the teams is very poor and the todos juntos value happened to be vital in my experience. The collaborative approach of more competent supervisors literally saved the situation several times. 4. No pay rise, no career growth
