Pros

Great products. Stable company (Funded by HQ), Small company environment enabling you to learn and work in many different areas.Growing in the US.

Cons

Don't expect to be rewarded for your efforts. Negotiate up front on your salary as it will not increase by much at all yearly. Very biased towards French employees. Tenured local employees will work for a long time only to see a young French person come in and be promoted within a short period of time. Lots of perks for those in the "in Crowd" No consistency in policies. SOPS??? None.

Pros

One of the positives of the role was the company itself—the products were strong, I really liked the flexibility in the hours, and the commute and location were very convenient. There were also a lot of good options nearby for food, which made the day-to-day experience more enjoyable.

Cons

That said, there were definitely challenges within certain departments that made things harder than they needed to be. Communication wasn’t always consistent, and at times there was a lot of micromanaging and internal tension that made collaboration difficult and slowed things down. It wasn’t the easiest environment to work in, but it did make it clear to me the type of culture I work best in, one with clearer communication and better alignment across teams.
