Mixed feelings.

Business Outlook

Pros

- Good culture overall - Nice benefits - good infrastructure - if you're lucky you may land on a nice team

Cons

- mobility support for internationals is a fantasy which soon becomes a neverending nightmare: if you start running into problems (and you will), they'll absolutely leave you to your own resources, despite their bold promises in the recruitment process - don't walk the talk: like any big corp, lots of talk on work balance and valuing employees, but when you actually need it, you'll realise soon enough there is close to none support nor empathy

Decent place to work

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

- Depending on the department / area that you work in, it can be a pretty relaxing work environment with great work-life balance. - Decent overall compensation and a good bonus program. - Nice facilities like gym (for a very small fee), chill / creative area etc.

Cons

- Depending on the department / area that you work in, it can be crazy stressful with tight deadlines and uncompensated (+ expected) overtime. - Employees are encouraged to lead through the leadership playground, which causes team members to step on each others toes. - Very few opportunities for in-role promotions, only seen it happen once or twice, despite working with some very competent people who're doing the work of the above level + more. - Managers in some departments don't have in-team direct reports, causing less visibility into day-to-day. Yearly reviews becomes a selling-game of accomplishments more so than constructive feedback from above.
