Good Company to get started

Council development associate

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great colleagues, young and ambitious team, office location

Cons

Poor management that puts pressure on the employees, Management is not able to communicate appropriately. In general it's a dominating culture of secrecy and talking behind others backs. A lot of promises (promotion, salary, relocation, development etc.) are made but never kept. Not a great place to develop your career. Upper management only cares about themselves and will not care about starters or for them to have a chance to evolve. No opportunities for trainings/courses given.

Good pay, Good atmosphere and great leadership

Very dependent on the section you get assigned to. Some will make the job significantly harder for various reasons. Downtown location is nice but parking/traffic is still a pain.
