Pros

Basic salary is definitely good. You can get by even not earning any bonuses. Amazing Line Management, really inspirational people with big will to fight. Great people.

Cons

The company is rather poorly managed. Everything is about money. Sometimes it's even pointless to try, so at the end you loose all of the motivation. It's quite hard to get a bonus. You have to make a lot of placements to hit the threshold and get money, otherwise you get nothing, when in most of agencies you get money for every placement. No one knows anything, people are unwiling to make decisions, everything is just constantly escalated, as nobody wants to take responsibility. I felt really unmotivated. It's super hard to get salary raise.

Really great manager. Remote work major plus. No micro management. Great pay

Annual salary increase this year isn't until September which is odd.
