Pros

Benefits, work from home flexibility, part of management

Cons

Not reliable at all, not even starting yet the collaboration and I was informed that I had to end it because I was the newest and there are some sort of internal "restructuring" changements. Even if I received a perfect feedback based on my work. And they claim that they are people oriented. Also, it was very hard to obtain any kind of information, especially from HR, some persons didn't even responded at all, they didn't even prepared the offboarding process. What a shame to be such a big company with such a little character regarding the people that last in it !
