Advice to Management

it is an international global company but pay/benefits does not align with other global firm in the local market

Pros

-Fun Company Culture. Team sponsored events monthly, free expensive holiday parties, etc. -Subsidized catered lunch and lots of snacks, free company swag -Nice people for the most part

Cons

- You will learn everything you need to know in the first 3 months, after that there isn't much more to learn from the job. -Young management means lack of experience and mentorship, ie hard to learn from your managers because they are also in their 20s. -Issues with gossip and the job is very repetitive and monotonous. You won't be building a ton of hard skills here unless you're on software engineering. Long hours...

Advice to Management
