Vantaggi

Only positive was that I worked directly at the client and I was assigned to top projects thanks to my line manager

Svantaggi

No bonus, lower than average salaries, no salary yearly review as only a very small percentage of employees can rank higher and receive a salary raise which is very SYMBOLIC (I was receiving it many years). The company decided to cut salary during COVID-19 even the workload of people was much higher. I understand that all businesses were affected by pandemic, but this company forced an illegal salary reduction on their employees ( again illegal in the Netherlands) without looking options given by the Dutch government. The taken money was given back as a bonus for Christmas!! I always thought that bonus is additional pay, not money cut from salary taken illegally for many months. They don’t work ethically and do not care about their employees. Second important topic is how the company is offering development and promotions to higher positions. Often for higher positions people from outside are preferred and internal people are even not informed about any new openings or encouraged for applying for other positions. To sum up if you like for a working in ethical place and progressing career with career, I won’t recommend this place.

Vantaggi

Strong Leadership, Fair/Average compensation, Thrive Program (company strives to keep you employeed as Sponsor reallocations occur)

Svantaggi

HR is very hands off. It is very difficult to speak to anyone. Not simple to call and ask a question. Everything has to go through a portal. This is challenging when there is time sensitive needs. They make it work but in my opinion, this is a 'con'.
