Pros

Global company culture will increase your network, gathered so many friends worldwide after few years of working here!

Cons

No loyalty from company. When required to venture into new country markets, will package a good remuneration deal to lure you in. After 1 or 2 years into the job, management will hire cheaper locals who know nothing about company culture or product. Just because new inexperienced locals are cheap. And void your contract the next year. Or kill your morale by removing sick leave. No maternity leave for females. No advancement opportunities because your local manager is earning even lower than you! Company is not concerned that you exceed your targets, they just want to save on manpower costs.

Pros

-Brand awareness in Europe...the ONLY reason they're winning at the moment. -Great industry networking opportunity -overtime pay along with salary, works well when traveling and putting in long hours on the road. -...I would be making it up

Cons

-Incompetent Management team, very afraid of anyone who may have good work ethic and more industry experience than themself. -Employees are trained to exhibit an equal, diverse, open, utopian type environment...however this is an act. The average employee in the New York office has been there 12 months, and are more than likely getting their feet wet in the corporate world (first job)...therefore disciples are easily manipulated and molded to shady company culture. If I ran into any of my co-workers later in life I would not hire! -Although there are attempts to paint a "fun" picture, the environment is very tense....imagine supervisors looking over your shoulder. Imagine sales trainers stirring the pot with petty office gossip...imagine the trainers and supervisors conspiring against account managers for job security. - The pay is below industry average. -Not sure what the other subsricber was referring to but there are NO PERKS! Are you referring to an IATAN card? The perk is you get to keep your job. -After you have submitted to the extensive background check (but no drug test hmmm??!?) you can count on insecure supervisors reaching out to friends in the industry to get the "scoop" on you...lol! sad.
