Pros

If you have other options take them.

Cons

The below applies for all European offices. Extremely long hours, intense daily schedule, extra hours are NOT paid, taking compensation time for the extra hours is frowned upon and hard to do, questionable and non-transparent ways of deciding what topic the organization deals with. Payment is very low, after covering the living expenses you are left with nothing (working poor). Limited opportunities for professional development. Interns are UNPAID. Internship positions are given out as favours.

Pros

Flexible hybrid environment, unionized support staff, amazing coworkers, learning every day

Management only looks out for themselves at the expense of others in the org. Lots of turnover and people openly discuss wanting to leave constantly.
