Pros

Great colleagues! Interesting industry to work in Empowerment to work independently Learning curve is steep Travel opportunities Not much micromanaging

Cons

Title says it all! CEO sends out regular emails raving about record breaking revenues, extraordinary financial growth! BUT only a tiny portion of it goes to the employees (very pyramid like structure where the management earns the bulk of money whilst the rest of us are at the bottom pulling long hours) Benefits are practically non existent.. mediocre insurance coverage. Ineffective HR, Ops and Marcoms who couldn’t care less about welfare, instead, focusing on costs as priority. It’s a joke how little this company spend on their employees (except the fancy sales conferences which they spend a bomb on). Needless to say, millions of dollars were spent on an embarrassingly immature legal battle. If those millions were distributed to the few thousand employees, it would have been a much better investment. Company prides itself as an industry leader with great technological solutions but it’s truly operating in an old fashioned manner.

Pros

The job was remote and very flexible.

Cons

The manager at times, could be unprofessional. She was a little passive aggressive and often no-showed or was late to meetings. She would make false promises and could be a bit condescending. The pay is also not great and despite recruiting hundreds of contractors, my requests for a raise was denied. The rate for contractors was also very cheap.
