Pros

- great company to start your career - some mature projects - salary for some people - job rotation - annual performance evaluations

Cons

- you're doing everything even if you're not supposed to (eg: development even though you're on an operations job) - proactiveness is encouraged but never praised or recognized - lack of work - balance (this was completely removed when the new management moved in last summer - yes i'm looking at you JOAO) - even though the international language in the company is english you're forced to deal with other languages in internal documents - lack of proper leadership and really bad management caused a lot of good old people to leave, including myself - you will not be given any compensations for anything you do extra, you will not even be recognized in any way (only the key people will, no matter how hard you try) - even if you're understaffed on your platform the management does not care as long as it puts more pressure on you but everything is working fine and you're doing the job of two people - they prefer to hire new guys that are totally unprepared and on low salaries than to promote or give a raise to older more qualified people that to the job perfectly, as long as they're cutting costs

Pros

-Technological superior to most other companies with use of AI and promising future tech/programs -benefits and pay are very competetive -room for professional growth and advancement if you know how to work in a corporate environment -resume development and professional advancement

Cons

-leadership ideology doesnt match the company/CEOs mission statement or belief (company is said to be all for safety yet leaders get put in charge and quickly dismantle and lay off 3 quarters of the safety department) -Leadership changes structure to benefit themselves by having all support functions report to them instead of the CEO, this ensures all support functions take a back seat to production and financial gain to include their employees well being -Company restructured and reorganizes very often while showing no loyalty to the employees who work hard and want to stay, this leads to turn over of great employees.
