Pros
Very Few. You can ask P&C for extra sick leave if you run out.
Cons
EROAD is almost hostile to remote workers, with executives indicating that they don't believe people are getting work done when working remotely. Despite pushing to have everyone return to the office, under the guise of fostering collaboration, EROAD opened an office in Manilla. The result is many teams coming in to the office to spend their day on teams calls with coworkers in another country. The office is over-crowded, without enough desks or parking for all the staff that they want to have physically present, and a shortage of meeting rooms means most of the teams calls are in the open-office environment. This makes it fairly loud and hard to focus. The unlimited sick leave policy has been scrapped, now staff are given the legal minimum, and have the option to ask P&C for more if they run out. The pay rises are never above CPI inflation, and the salary reviews for this year have been postponed by six months. The executives make poor decisions, and when those decisions lead to waste the lower level staff are blamed. Good staff have been leaving due to the environment, and the rest of us are expected to pick up their responsibilities. If you make the decision to accept a job at EROAD, you should negotiate hard on the starting salary. Your effective earning power will not go up while you are here.
