Pros

I worked at the Budapest office as a software engineer during my Masters. The environment is nice, very laid-back and I didn't have any responsibilities. The salary is good for Hungarian standard.

Cons

They hire almost anyone and they hire in quantity. The senior collegues were stressed and didn't have time to involve the new hirees. Sometimes it takes weeks just to receive a computer to work one. Since there is no real challenge, most smart people leave in a few years.

Pros

-Technological superior to most other companies with use of AI and promising future tech/programs -benefits and pay are very competetive -room for professional growth and advancement if you know how to work in a corporate environment -resume development and professional advancement

Cons

-leadership ideology doesnt match the company/CEOs mission statement or belief (company is said to be all for safety yet leaders get put in charge and quickly dismantle and lay off 3 quarters of the safety department) -Leadership changes structure to benefit themselves by having all support functions report to them instead of the CEO, this ensures all support functions take a back seat to production and financial gain to include their employees well being -Company restructured and reorganizes very often while showing no loyalty to the employees who work hard and want to stay, this leads to turn over of great employees.
