Pros

Decent salary. Minor progression if you could manage up just like most places, or if you can prove yourself by working extremely long hours, doing 2-3 person's job. Some effort in innovating the services.

Cons

My opinion, huge number of the people here are incompetent at their job and blame someone/something else if something goes wrong. Thus, manage your own expectations if you want to get any good work done. Middle management that I deal with turns a blind eye to many client complaints and feedback. Micromanagement happens from the top and tolerates toxic politics. Near-zero HR policies because there is HR is almost non-existent - 1 or 2 person managing all of the global offices. Same for many other important business functions.

Pros

Company in an industry with so much potential

Cons

Poor culture, poor leadership by the top management. Doesn't care much about feedback from mid managers and people on the ground. Poor work life balance, Overwhelming work, endless meetings, daily struggles with clients' complains on repetitive issues that never get addressed properly. Work that can be automated are still performed manually. Not willing to invest in systems nor people. There are just too many to list. Pathetic bonus payout (4-5% of annual salary), considering business has been really good. I honestly don't know how I lasted this long with the company. Recent mass firing of staffs globally, despite the struggling workload, was a wake up call for me. There are better managers and companies to work for and be loyal to out there.
