Vantaggi

1) The learning - they really do invest in training you and equipping you with skills. 2) The people - bloody competitive bunch of people who will never back down till they win. The calibre of people in the company is really good.

Svantaggi

1) The compensation - is terrible. Sure it looks great at first glance, but when you look at the amount of workload, responsibility and expectation, we are extremely underpaid. 2) Meritocracy NOT - it's a wonderful marketing company, so good that some people spend most of their time marketing themselves very well and get ahead despite not delivering the business. Also, even though diversity is touted as an important factor, if you are a minority, you generally have it much harder trying to shine/get ahead. 3) Risk adverse / Slow to react - everything needs to be tried and tested and verified. Experimentation is the buzz word, sadly implementation is often not as budget gets cut and put on something that has shown to deliver results..instead of experimentation. Same for reacting to competition. By the time we decide what to do, it's already too late. And to thinking innovation/agility is a success driver.

Vantaggi

Many intelligent people who are experts in their fields who are willing to help and provide advice (if they have time). Decent benefits and pay.

Svantaggi

I mentioned time because many people are stretched and overworked. Work life balance is pretty bad and shows no signs of improvement. A lot of this can be attributed to near useless management. Every project is treated as absolute maximum priority but can still be dropped at a moment's notice. Work processes are horribly cumbersome and slow. Even small changes require many approvals but there are endless demands to "move faster".
