Pros

- The team demonstrates a high level of professionalism.
 - A comprehensive benefits package is provided to employees. - Employees have regular opportunities for cross-functional collaboration. - Annual summits are held to facilitate in-person networking and strengthen inter-team relationships.

Cons

- This new 3-day-a-week in-office policy is a bit of a struggle, especially when your entire team works abroad in different time zones. - Career progression isn't exactly clear, which makes it tough to see where you're headed.
 - We've had so many reorganisations and leadership changes in the past few years, it's hard to keep up.

Pros

Strong work-life balance, supportive leadership, and a collaborative culture that feels more people-focused than many large corporations. Hybrid flexibility, solid benefits, and long-term stability make it a great place to build a career. There are also good opportunities for internal growth and cross-functional experience.

Cons

Decision-making can sometimes move slowly due to layers of process and approvals. Compensation may not always be as competitive as larger tech-focused companies, and organizational changes or transformation initiatives can occasionally create ambiguity or shifting priorities. Like many large enterprises, bureaucracy can at times impact speed and innovation.
