Pros

- The industry itself is interesting enough and always evolving. - Met a great deal of nice people. - Instances of tokenism aside, diversity is actually encouraged.

Cons

- Pay is not so great, plus after one year your salary just stops growing forever. - Work life balance is a disaster, flexibility goes one way only - guess which one! --The following concerns the office in Tourcoing.-- The company might be a very well established one, though it's unfortunate how much improvisation informs all ranks in management. Decisions and all sorts of information are rarely explained and lack the transparency a naive soul might expect. The office itself is a travesty: it lacks room and it's oftentimes overcrowded, the hardware is just ridiculous, old and poorly maintained, and on any given day you'll find something not working. It doesn't even have sprinklers in case of fire... Management is mostly numbers-obsessed and generally uninspiring if not incompetent, and any form of dissent or critical thinking is discouraged if not openly censored; hierarchy and fragile egos are meant to form a deadly combination. Brand loyalty equals various forms of brainwashing, and employees are generally treated like kids.
