Pros

Good coworkers who try to support each other despite the leadership. Standard benefits.

Cons

Arbitrary Policy Changes: Management is highly reactionary and unpredictable. Policies are frequently changed on a whim based on personal preferences or favoritism, rather than logic or business needs, creating an unstable work environment. Credit Theft by Management: Leaders routinely dismiss employee ideas, only to adopt them later and claim them as their own. Credit is never given where it is due, which completely stalls career growth. Culture of Fear and Blame: Open communication is discouraged, and there is zero tolerance for minor mistakes. Management forces staff to prioritize speed over protocols, then blames the employees when process failures happen. Severe Quality and Regulatory Risks: Staff are systematically pressured to bypass critical procedures to meet fast deadlines. This has directly resulted in product quality failures, product recalls, and massive liability risks. Suppressed Safety Reporting: Workplace injury reporting is actively discouraged. Management especially the excellence manager blames the injured individual rather than addressing the root cause, leading to unreported workplace hazards. Penalized Time Off: Taking sick time off or handling external personal emergencies is now being met with penalties

Good benefits but poor management and priorities

Pros

Good benefits and flexible in office policy.

Cons

Weaponized incompetence is a culture here, and there is poor management/decision-making from regional lead team. No priorities or investment into the business. Constant squeezing and a "do more with less" attitude.

Great teamwork and smooth hiring process, but room for improvement

Pros

The hiring process was very smooth in Costa Rica. I was contacted within the same week I applied, and the recruiter clearly explained both the hiring process and the company from the very first interaction, which made the experience transparent and professional. This has been the best workplace I've experienced. There is a strong sense of teamwork, colleagues are genuinely supportive, and the management team does an excellent job creating a positive and collaborative culture. Regarding the HR team, there have been several staffing changes during my time with the company. While everyone has been professional, the overall experience can sometimes feel a bit impersonal due to the frequent turnover.

Cons

Although the salary ranges are very competitive within the market and the company offers a solid benefits package, I believe there is room to further enhance the benefits offered to employees. At times, administrative and support roles are managed with the same expectations and operational approach as customer service positions. While maintaining high standards is important, recognizing the different nature of these roles could lead to a better employee experience and more realistic performance expectations.
