Pros

food and drinks for free in the office

Cons

very bad atmosphere in the office, the majority of employees are extremely stupid and ignorant: pass all the day gossiping about the colleagues or superiors. bonus are distributed to friends and not according to merits. let alone that the platform is scamming people - rarely gives the profits to the customers who earn money. if they don't find any reason to keep the money, only in such a case they give profits and then close the account in accordance to some article that they have in terms and conditions. they did not pay me what they had to pay me when I resigned. avoid this place at all costs!

Pros

I was part of 3 separate teams and everybody was great including the leadership of those teams. Work environment was good and so was work life balance. Only time it felt stressful was when people left due to poor management decisions. Easy to learn work processes and tasks and good training methods. Flexible working hours depending on position.

Cons

Entry wages are very low for every position compared to similar companies in the market. Easy access to level 2 teams but no further development. "My way or the highway" mentality from upper management. Have been told multiple times when asking for additional help, salary increase or lowering the work load to either continue working as is or leave. The upper management that were non Bulgarian were completely disconnected from the actual work environment and constantly made poor decisions that made at least 15 people to leave in my 2 years there Pathetic wage bumps compared to increases in work load and responsibility. Especially insulting when informed about yearly profits of company. No real attempts for retaining quality employees.
