Pros

Multinational environment, good people; good telecoms teams.

Cons

It seems that it is really a wonder that the company still exists, at least in Spain: procedures do not exist or do not work, software or applications without which it is not possible to work do not function most of the time that paralyses the whole work process... The worst part is a very lame management that is trying its best to avoid any kind of responsibility: when you ask some transparent question like if it is your responsibility or not, usually the response that you get from your Manager is "Sorry, I do not have time". This is a vicious circle and results in that other employees though being nice, abuse and put their responsibilities on you, just because you are without any management support and other employees do the same with them. Apart from that their is no balance between work and personal life. You are treated like a robot who is only supposed to bring results to the company. And if you are sick or have some family issues, you are not needed any more.

Pros

-Technological superior to most other companies with use of AI and promising future tech/programs -benefits and pay are very competetive -room for professional growth and advancement if you know how to work in a corporate environment -resume development and professional advancement

Cons

-leadership ideology doesnt match the company/CEOs mission statement or belief (company is said to be all for safety yet leaders get put in charge and quickly dismantle and lay off 3 quarters of the safety department) -Leadership changes structure to benefit themselves by having all support functions report to them instead of the CEO, this ensures all support functions take a back seat to production and financial gain to include their employees well being -Company restructured and reorganizes very often while showing no loyalty to the employees who work hard and want to stay, this leads to turn over of great employees.
