Good place to work but bad career progession

Communication systems engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Stable employment, a lot of vacations during the year, good quality of life, and not low salaries compared with other companies in the same sector.

Cons

Very difficult career progression, and nearly impossible to get a big (higher than 5%) wage increase. It doesn't matter how good or bad you do during the year, you'll always get a 100% in your evaluation and your bonus is related to that mark.
