Pros

- no strict working hours - enough time for your personal "stuff". ( I had a french kid by my side watching youtube 6 hours per day). - Sophia Antipolis is a very nice place (if you have a car!). - Full of young nice people! - Good payment. - Is the french riviera!!!!! - Good place for having first slots filled on my CV (pls don't stay). - Good people for normal french people who want to live on a nice calm place inside a brain-dead stable job.

Cons

-Terrible commutation, more than 1 hour to get home on public transports. -Managers aren't real managers, and decision making is made by clowns. -Dev infrastructure is the worst kind. 0 Design patterns or architecture. Spaghetti code. No documentation. No functional knowledge. Archaic methodologies and sloooooow procedures. - No real growth in carriers. - They see contractors as objects, not human resources. - Elitism. - The English spoken by several higher ups (taking appart the french accent issue) is kinder-garden level like. - A terrible choice for any transport company. - nice vacations

Pros

Benefits such as Hybrid working model, Medical, PTO, Parental leave

Cons

Terrible work-life balance and the sense that management doesn't care for the mental health of its employees Company is shifting more and more towards replacing employees who have worked here for 5, 10, 15 years with AI or else hiring less expensive workers in other markets in developing nations
