Pros

Flat organization Lots of freedom Easy access to hierarchy Your opinion is valued

Cons

Difficult to manage people due to lack of boundaries on responsibilities, freedom, discipline expected. People belonging to one team are typically spread over different countries, it's a challenge to manage different personalities, located in different countries, with different cultural backgrounds and very different levels of skills. Management tends to overthink and avoid taking decisions. The hub operations relies on a handful of very knowledgeable and senior resources which become unmissable over time. These resources are being overused and are in danger of burning themselves out due to the sheer amount of work getting shifted towards them.

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
