Low increase of salary

Pros

relative liberty . Company with a great history

Cons

salary increase is miserable and does not follow the inflation: in reality, it is a salary cut. invasion in your private life: they kinda force you to attend to their after work events, in which you only find paked conversations, paked smile, pre-pack arguments with gossipy people. they tend to put threat on people, instead og being assertive.
