Office on the outskirts of Madrid Hybrid model after years of WFH Ancient tools, legacy stuff everywhere “It has always been done this way” mentality Lots of corporate politics Lack of clear communication of upcoming changes from local management Salary increases are below inflation Zero talent retention policies, yet another “meat grinder”
