Pros

Good customers, basic compensation, not much time off.

Cons

This is a very small but very global company. You will be expected to do business very early in the morning and very late at night. With the occasional meeting in the early AM. This company does not subscribe to any Saas, no online collaboration software, NO CRM! No contact manager! They use outlook as their CRM! No services marketing or advertising. no sales team, no marketing team, no leads. No automated marketing software. They have basically banned internal email and discourage external email. Standard American English and Slang scares them! They think that british business culture is how you conduct business in the states! They have it all backwards.

Pros

Established global brand. Small hybrid offices. Peer-to-peer training and onboarding. Do your time, make your connections, move on.

Cons

Around the clock working hours. Lack of compensation. Leadership is mediocre management. Your peers are your lifeline so stick to them - learn from them how to best handle poor managers. Don't drink the kool-aide for too long. Do your time, make connections, jump ship. The skills you learn from your peers will land you in far more healthy environments in tech (with a much better culture), promise.
