Pros

international exposure, good people to work with in the team. Ability to work from home.

Cons

"People" - is no longer value for the company. low salary, not adjusted neither to inflation nor to market for few years. Poor management: increasing KPIs midyear while giving zero resources & not fixing the problems that prevents timely performance. Each "improvement" leads to another failure in the process, because there are already too many policies that contradict to each other. After the few layoffs during 2024 & 25 and after people voluntarily leaving - company just redistributed load on those who stayed, ignoring the fact that new increased load cannot be handled by 1 person. And of course - no increased compensation for that, because "we have no budget" :) This leads to no work-life balance at all. HR function is poor and does not communicate values of the company, and even not understanding what they are doing there. Instead of hiring specialists - company is constantly hiring student Interns, who cannot think or do anything without chatgpt. Career opportunity = is at least few years between the grades & complete super-duper project & exams -> in order just to get 3-10% raise.
