Pros

Salary is ok but what u receive is what u will spend , its not enough in average of booking.Other countries same positions receive way more. environment is nice , Monthly parties etc. Support of TL but this can be different on each TL. The management of the Office is very good and friendly but promote the wrong people.

Cons

Strict Time schedule without the smallest flexibility. Internal hire process is more difficult than external(with other words to get promoted quit and re apply for higher positions. External applications go over internal for higher positions. salaries could be higher for the work which needs to be done. You get promoted if you know and are close with the (right people)

Pros

- working hours are 9-6. easy job no need to stay longer than that. you get your national bank holidays - if there is a gap day that u want to extend you need to have a lottery among your colleagues to have longer stays, so if u are lucky you get longer extended vacations plus you get very free bananas and apples - if you want to have mineral water the office manager can tell you those are for guests not for employees - booking benefit 1000 Euro per yer

Cons

- Current management is way far away from the global vision, typical old fashioned Turkish bossy attitude, - Senior management loves gossiping and encourage employees to do so to be able to get info about other senior managers - Current management has been there for ages, very hard to change and get them adapt to the global vision - transparency is zero, during 1 to 1 meetings people are being told that they are going to be promoted, promotions are planned - behind the closed doors people are being told that they are not worth extra training - the most famous saying I have heard lots of times is that if you don't like it here, you have your legs you can leave or go somewhere else.( regional manager's own saying during Istanbul office visit
