      Good for a first job

      Pros

      They focus heavily on training, so it's good for a first job opportunity. Working in a shared service centre can be challenging, but it gives you the opportunity to experience several areas of Human Resources and learn about labour realities in different countries. Very interesting environment for a curious, results-driven, with a strong client focus and problem-solving skills.

      Cons

      The salary wasn't good, and career growth was pretty slow.
