- The salary is very low compared to the market, and even after some time and solid results, it doesn’t change much.
- Career growth feels limited.
- It sometimes feels like the company isn’t interested in long-term collaboration. Responsibilities keep increasing every quarter, but the recognition — both financial and career-wise — just doesn’t follow.
- The internship is tough, long, and stressful. You need strong nerves and good self-organization to make it through.
- The compensation and benefits are weak:
1) No (or almost no) relocation help (individually for each person), no support with residence or document issues.
2) There is no compensation for meals or taxis, but there is partial compensation for work-related tools and a partial reimbursement for gym membership.
3) Bonuses are small and feel more symbolic than actually motivating.
