Pros

Top tier equipment to do your job Complimentary lunch 3 times a week Snacks in office are excellent

Cons

Salary on the lower side compared to similar roles elsewhere. Productivity targets or “Key Performance Indicators” changing every 2 quarters. High workload. Senior management actions portray contempt and mistrust for employees e.g ever increasing tracking. Leading to mistrust of senior management. Not ideal.
