Pros

They provided free tea, coffee, milk, sugar etc.

Cons

Management have no compassion. Zero work-life balance with random last minute shift changes. Scattered shifts while working nights (1 on, 1 off, 1 on, 1 off etc.). You have to log your own night allowance through a confusing system. Everything is locked and you can't access many things on some computers (such as emails, teams etc.) - felt like they didn't trust their staff. Hiring large groups of people without care just to fill roles that they have a high turnover for. You're literally just a number to them, not a person - makes you feel dispensable. Didn't meet my manager the first couple of months I was there.

Pros

Benefits are better than most US companies. You get twice or triple the numbers of days off per year.

Cons

Focus is more on originating company location for group events and emails. Due to time zone differences, it can be difficult to work with others without adjusting your schedule. It is difficult to get promoted outside originating country. Roles are few and far between in the US.
