Pros

It used to be a great place to work!

Cons

The only way to succeed here is if you speak the boss’s mother tongue. They bring in lot of expats from outside on management level and the progression is only reserved for kiss ups and folks from their country. Nepotism has become too deep rooted in this company and its openly growing. They have managers, there are no leaders and they have turned this once great place of work into a toxic mess of favouritism and nepotism.

Pros

It was ok in the beginning. Cushy benefits, solid 401k match, and adequate training period.

Cons

Starting salary is below average. Morale started to decline and did not feel supported by management. Work life balance started to suffer.
