Pros

- Helpful, nice, dedicated employees. - Awesome managers (for the most part) - Great benefits system (500k HUF cafeteria, car benefit or cash compensation above job grade 10,etc.). - Good yearly bonus system. - Employees are looked after, great attention to mental health, personal support services. - Multiple opportunities within the company. - Varied home office contracts, and you get payed extra if you work from home. - Great Finnish mentality across the globe, - Truly diverse and multicultural company.

Cons

- Poor employee retention capabilities for managers (e.g.: one time increase limit is 10% in Hungary), - Salaries are not matching job market, competitors give higher salary. - You initially have to negotiate a good salary for yourself, otherwise you'll be stuck with it, and you'll only get yearly inflation compensation. - You have to switch to a higher job grade position to (somewhat meaningfully) increase your base salary. Car benefit cash compensation at JG10 or above can help to increase income (if you don't need the car).
