Pros

Used to be nice place to work

Cons

Do not fulfill what is in the contract- speaking with coworkers, some had also experienced this. For example, shares promised in the contract were never given or less were given Middle management- not the sharpest tools in the shed. For the most part do not understand numbers and a few have serious trouble communicating in english, the company language Company culture- think theyre still a startup, act like theyre a startup, but they are not Relatively speaking- low pay and benefits

Pros

potential (!) to earn some good money, if you over-perform

Cons

literally everything else. The daily pressure is incredibly high, they are kicking people out from one second to the next every single week. Managers do not care about anything else but their own bonus. Complaints are not being taken serious. Chaotic and competitive.

Pros

Great benefits and office location, great trainings provided

Cons

Best promotions and career opportunities tend to go to French people first regardless of merit but management tends to go blind on this issue (because the management team is also mainly french). Some managers/directors tend to be too autocratic in their style
