Pros
- Salary on time - International environment / recognizable brand - Exposure to structured processes and cross-functional collaboration - Fast-paced workload that can build resilience and adaptability - Opportunity to work on high-volume, business-critical deliverables
Cons
- In my experience, successive fixed-term contracts were used in a way that effectively maintained a permanent working relationship while withholding the rights and protections that would normally accompany it - Poor salaries - Dishonest annual reviews - Toxic behaviour - Unpaid overtime - Micromanagement - Useless meetings - Useless corporate events - Useless people getting promoted just because they know people - Firing their best people for speaking up - Common sense nowhere to be found - HR/process handling during termination felt rigid and impersonal - Limited transparency on payroll/termination breakdowns and supporting documentation - Concerns about work-life balance and whether actual hours consistently matched formal expectations
