Pros

This is your chance to experience first hand a company which has been built on lies, broken promises and manipulation

Cons

The working hours are long, the pay is low and the pressure is high. Nothing wrong with that, of course, I have held demanding jobs before. But the undertone here is permanent abuse: people get played against each other, managers abuse their reports by lying, bullying and displaying two-faced behavior. You are encouraged to find fault with translators so you can cut their payments. You are told to charge clients for work which was never done. There is a permanent exodus of workers, making the pressure on those who are left behind even bigger. Morale is low. No chance of promotion, no pay raises. Work hard, play hard (the company's motto) in practice comes down to working 12-hour days as a standard, and then drinking yourself completely stupid. Taking into account the unpaid overtime, your hourly wages will be lower than a janitor's.

Pros

The work isn't too tough. The people in the office are skilled and pleasant. There are decent benefits and you can work from home for 2 days.

Cons

The pay is bad. Decent for when you first start but raises are small and infrequent. Bonuses are even smaller and more infrequent. We were fully remote but slowly have been forced back into office for no good reason.
