Pros

Nothing Much to shout about.

Cons

-Very low pay especially for guys working remotely (African Continent) -Discrimination among the African community, and lack of respect for the black African Community. -Long working hours with low pay. -Poor training and onboarding processes. -No space for personal creativity at work. -Micro-Management is the norm of the day,(even taking a cup of tea or going to the washroom you must ask permission from your manager) -If you are a creative person this is the last company you may want to work for as they don't have room for creativity, it's their way or the highway.
