US sub of French company...bit of both cultures, mostly good, sometimes interesting

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Laid-back company culture, easygoing and friendly people in NJ. Small company feel within the US. Good place to learn.

Cons

Bureaucracy, too many internal projects and a lot of cultural disconnect between US and France. For instance US compensation is based on different principles, and the needs of US customers require constant availability, including in summer.
