Pros

Remote working opportunities available, although this was hinted to be changing going forward. Travel opportunities available. Decent remuneration, although expected for a Swiss company to be able to play large in other markets.

Cons

Too many hours and very stressful environment, with very high expectations but objectives and goals not communicated clearly by management and / or changing frequently. Very chaotic work environment, with staff not wanting to develop or adhere to processes. Lack of standardised methods of working along with accompanying tools. In some cases, staff were paying for services they were using for work out of their own pockets. HR function is pretty bad, borderline incompetent. Finance and HR functions essentially depend on a manager that is overwhelmed and lacks interest, followed by interns that rotate on a six-month basis.

Pros

Learning curve, supportive environment from colleagues of the same class

Cons

- below industry average paid - no OT paid/ recognition although I worked till 3-4am on a daily basis and 1-2am during weekend - minimum salary increase on top of a very low base - no WLB; no respect for PTO (people still reached out during my time off) - management could have careless about employees well-being. Whenever there’s a problem they would even blame the junior staffs - no clear track for career development. All they will ever give you is promises
