Pros

Good coworkers. Okay start salary, decent bonus/pension.

Cons

Not nearly good enough training, just learning by doing. Local leaders that doesn’t know the first thing about management. Micromanagement is worse than I ever experienced before. Extremely stressful workplace, where you are constantly overbooked. Salary development is extremely low. Most people stay for 2 years and then go to competitors.

Pros

Great coworkers who truly care about putting best foot forward and great technology.

Cons

Compensation has not kept pace with inflation, making it difficult to feel rewarded despite strong performance. * Career progression lacks transparency. Advancement opportunities are limited, and there are no clearly defined milestones or timelines for promotion in some functions. * Organizational priorities and direction frequently change, making it difficult to execute long-term strategies. Communication from senior leadership can feel disconnected from the realities of frontline employees. * The company has become increasingly top-heavy, with decisions often taking a long time to reach the people responsible for execution. * Incentive structures have become less competitive over time, which has negatively affected motivation and retention
