Pros

Company is large, so many different departments to move around in if you want a change. People there are also very nice

Cons

Do not compensate fairly. People I know have only gotten a better offer after they have sent in their resignation letter. Some departments have a lot of work with minimum pay and there are not many chances for career advancement.

Pros

The only pro of working here is being able to gain the relevant experience to work somewhere with better pay and a better work environment.

Cons

Poor salary - no benefits Training structure is unorganised and poorly executed Staff morale is poor Team leaders care more about sucking up to their bosses than leading a team. Unsupportive management Management are bullies, causing a high turn over in the time I was there and ultimately became the reason I left. Work environment is more like a dictatorship. Senior management was hardly ever in the office and when they were, they were very standoffish and rude. Appointed team leader had no knowledge of the entire teams responsibilities and therefore could not provided sufficient support. All in all, if you're happy working in a degrading, catty environment where you are made to feel as though you have no options and have no recognition for hard work, then work for SGS. Unless you're willing to be apart of the managerial clique... your time here will be made into a misery.
