Pros

It was close to where I was personally located. Interesting projects to work on. The local team was filled with nice people. Company has a lot of business, will probably keep doing well.

Cons

There is no room nor interest for personal growth. There is a big "Do as you are told and don't speak or comment about anything" mentallity. Poor Contract and general work ethics. Straight up lies about contract renewals and salary. Consistent late payments on salary and holiday allowance. Demands to make overtime and work in the weekends for no compensation. If refused you are deemed "not fit for the company". Management screaming, making "examples" of people and shaming them publicly. The phrase "If you are good for the company the company will be good for you" Is one that was said a lot. But even people who had been working very hard since the beginning where let go without a second though when they wouldn'd agree a lowered salary and worse work terms. And to top it all off the office is in poor shape. Nothing gets done about it as it not seen as an office worth investing in. The entire interest in the Hilversum office is to get foreign people working there which will be impressed by the dutch living standard and work for almost minimum wage without complaining.

Pros

Pros: - The company helped with the relocation process - Interesting & diverse projects and tasks - People except management are great, passionate about their work, and professional. It was pleasant to work with them - Rapid growth of competence due to different & challenging tasks - Some other bonuses such as English compensation, medical insurance, & days off

Cons

All you see in the negative reviews unfortunately is true. - Lack of transparency. It's not clear what the company's goals are and what they expect from their employees therefore you never know when and why you can be fired. - Straightforward lies from management or hiding information even if you ask questions directly - The company is not interested in workers’ personal growth and promotion. They can fire you and hire “new blood” as a replacement the very next day. What happened to me is that my colleague in my team first was fired without any notice and I was doing the job that used to be done by 2 people for a year. Then a new colleague for my team and the same area of responsibility was hired behind my back. And after one month I was laid off without any notice. - Crunch culture, overtime is normal and not paid - Top management is usually absent and is not deeply involved in all the processes but knows well who they should let go - Speed over quality
