Pros

Great place for career development. Ambitious company that is driving to be the best in the industry. Rewards those who are hungry and determined. You're put on a path from the moment you arrive. Work hard, play hard mentality. Great culture, great people, strong leadership. Employees are very tight with one another, and it's a fun place to work. Office is also very international, which is refreshing.

Cons

If you're not prepared to take on a structured work environment and you're not able to adopt best practices you will struggle. Quite a demanding role for the first 6-12 months. This is not a con for me, but you do travel with the job, which can be difficult for some people, especially if you have kids.

Pros

Good pay, competitive, fun people

Cons

They need to lower the price if they ever want to regain what they lost over the past year. It shows in the repeat business. GDS has become just another events company to most. The reputation has been destroyed.
