Pros

Restaurant inside is free of charge for employees.

Cons

Very old-style company in very old and sad building with turnstile and ridiculous working time despite your real job efficiency. Very nepotistic and patronising company. If you are a real professional, do not apply and do not accept any position here otherwise you will play an outsider role and will be underused. Sales people are useless. The role is resized to customer care (organizes visits and appointments, delegations etc.). If you are a qualified sales person, you are really wasted here. Totally unprepared managers make decisions without any industrial logic. No one to one meeting, no valuation/measuring system. You will never learn anything from these people. They didn’t get the management position because they deserved it but because they are someone’s son. Salesforce organization is terrible: there are no clear engagement rules, who work per product, who by geographic area except for certain types of customers, who only per customer, who per agent. Cultural stereotypes and lack of teamwork: the relationship between subsidiaries is spoiled by still very old stereotypes (on both sides) and by deep cultural gaps. The outside world has changed and this company still lives in prejudices as it was most probably happening in the 1970s. As in the 1970s, the overall infrastructure (People, Process and Technology) does not allow the exchange of information and knowledge. Employees generally prefer to keep everything on paper rather than online. Giving information here is considered to lose power, not to gain it. Lack of training and professional education: People are simply not trained at all. All the employees with more than 3 years’ experience are completely inadequate to work elsewhere. So, once you join the company, as you don’t grow and learn anything at all, you will never be able to get hired from a normal company and will be stuck in the 70s!
