Pros

-If you're desperate for a job, well, it is still a job. -Free tea and coffee to help you stay awake during the 12 hours at the office

Cons

-Low pay -Management treats you like dirt -My manager, specifically, had no idea what he or she was doing. It's a mystery how he or she got the job. -The HR policies are deceptive. HR will tell you that you can accumulate the hours you've worked overtime to take days off later. However you will not be able to take them off when there's "low capacity", and will continue to accrue them. -Long hours.. It's sick that some people actually brag that they've stayed at the office until 2am. If you think you'd have a problem staying at the office until 2am while getting paid less than 10 euros an hour, don't work here.

Pros

Provides strong opportunities for travel, especially around conferences. The company makes a strong effort to onboard and support new employees and clients. There are many great colleagues to connect with and learn from.

Cons

My experience was that leadership lacked clear direction and timely decision-making. The culture felt transactional, with employee retention and development taking a back seat to short-term financial performance.
