Pros

I learned a lot, they gave me a lot of time to learn, the flexibility in the schedule is enviable, the Oktoberfest and the afterworks were incredible.

Cons

Summary: 1 National and cultural discrimination. 2 Labor harassment or "mobbing". 3 Ageism. 4 Offensive and potentially racist and homophobic comments. 5 Unequal treatment and possible discrimination based on employee performance. 6 Alcohol consumption in the workplace. 7 Inadequate treatment of mental health problems. -If you work in another location that is not the German one, they pay you much less than they do, the salary bands are very different. - If you're not German, they don't treat you like the rest, I even went to the terrace to eat with my colleagues and they even said “excuse me, but we are going to speak German”. -False feel-good atmosphere in the office, there is no good atmosphere in the office and most of them don't even speak to each other when they leave there, but they make you think otherwise so that you feel good when you walk in. When I left the company, only three people asked me how I was, so you can see that good vibes end where they begin. -Triggering problem for which I wanted to leave there: I had two managers, let's call them X and Y. X had a bad temper, and when he got angry he treated people badly, all the colleagues talked about it and it was known throughout the office. We complained a few about it and the only thing we got was that they promoted him and on top of that they told us that this was because he is very "emotional" and that he was going to take courses to treat it. And on the other hand, we had Y, who when everything was going well was very "colleague" with everyone, but since the billing went down, you already had it with him. His attitude would suddenly change and he would put pressure on you to bill more. This also happened with a colleague who was taking a certificate exam and he failed it several times and told him that it was useless because he was too old for that. When he approved it, he said that he had passed thanks to him, that is, that his insults motivated him to improve himself. He made comments about racist, homophobic people from the company and on top of that, many days he came home from eating drunk and began to sing and sleep in the office, bothering those of us who were working. We also complain about Y, but since we were billing a lot of money, well, nothing happens, that's because everything is going well. I had an anxiety attack because of dealings of this type and when I asked human resources for help and asked to please telework so as not to see a certain person's face, they told me "Tomorrow I take a vacation when I return we will talk about it but in principle your contract says that you must go to the office for at least 3 days”. Months later, the exact same thing happened to a colleague of mine and he was allowed to telework. do you know why? Because he invoiced much more than me for the company. The summary is that the monkey dances for money, the deal depends on the benefit they get from you.
