Pros

nice colleagues, almost friendly atmosfere (notwithstanding a bit of hypocrisy)

Cons

At the beginning things good,, an amazing relocation package, a brief explanation oftargets with some insurance that anyway would beeasy... as matter of fact a system of paradoxes, where your work will count only on some stupid percentages calculated on people's mood!! A place where if you won't meet absurd and impossible targets (as already sabotaged by the system imposed), first of all you won't get bonuses and after a while you'll be the next candidate to next door... and if you want to go they will open it straightfoward, and fire you up only to say that they are responsible and not you... and just to save the miserable paycheck of few days and to withdraw their word on a relocation bonus not paid till last... how to turn wretch in few days for few miserable euros...

Pros

Great company and good employees

Cons

This is one of the worst places I have ever worked. They do not care about their employees here; to them, you are just another number. They get upset when you use your sick days, even though they are a legal right, and then retaliate against you by punishing you when you return to work. And be careful about filing a complaint with Human Resources because they are two-faced. Instead of helping you, it often ends up backfiring on you. That is why no one feels comfortable going to them. This company does not appreciate or value its employees unless you have connections or favoritism. Management, starting from the top, has no clear direction. Everything constantly changes, even when it is not the best option, simply because someone higher up decided it. The environment feels outdated and authoritarian, like something from another era. There is a lot of hypocrisy, resentment, and abuse of power.
