Pros
It was a pleasant place to work when the company was known as HPS/Havas Magma and was set up as an offshore office to supply services to the Havas Health agencies in the US.
Cons
However, with the merger and the opening of Prose on Pixels to the creative and commercial markets, it was clear that the CEO, President, and CFO in NY had not planned ahead. Layoffs began, and the company was understaffed with workers who were paid less than their true value. The overall mood was negative, and many were burnt out trying to meet unrealistic demands from upper management. The benefits were no longer appealing, and there was very little money set up for team-building exercises. Each time, it feels more like the company's financial disaster. Costa Rica's management was known for poor communication and decision-making. They lacked transparency with their employees and did not address the needs they had.
