Pros

It looks nice on your resume. Work conditions may be ideal for people who are 'less human' 'more robot'. Everything is clear-cut; you start exactly at 9am, and leave exactly at 6:30pm. No OT!

Cons

1./ No emails, no phones, no WiFi. Alas not, internet is accessible by hitting a couple of keys to connect using a separate machine. With a maximum of 128 kBps, nothing loads. You will soon realise everyone in the company uses their own mobiles to do the needed research. 2./ No phones means the place is absolute silent. Since there are no emails or phones, you wait for the 'Boss' to ring you through the public intercom. Everyone hears the PSA. Also, no one will try to talk or communicate with you. The silence also means that every time you get up to get water or go to the loo, everyone hears you. Loud, and clear. 3./ There may not be toilet access. (From 21 January-14 March, the toilet was down.) This happens on a regular basis throughout the year. No worries! You can borrow the key to the dirty toilet 3 storeys up. Don't forget your own toilet paper. Tissues are NOT provided. We're all trying to be green here. 4./ No eating- no trying to sneak in bread for breakfast, snacks, or a banana! The office has a pantry, with a Nespresso machine. But surprise, it is the 'Boss''s personal pantry. No one else gets access to it. 5./ It's a watch company, so obviously time is the biggest factor. Every minute counts. You have to punch in for work, punch out for lunch, punch in after lunch, and punch out after work. Every minute late is deducted in proportion to your month's salary. 6./ Be prepared to have to buy a present for the 'Boss' birthday every year. The gift is requested by the 'Boss' himself. Sure, don't be pressured to chip in! But do note he will be informed of whoever does not chip in the birthday card. 7./ The 'Boss' thinks he's some Italian mafia- hurling vulgarities loudly across the office, and banging the desk whenever he's unhappy.
