Vantaggi
- Nice looking product, really a lot of potential - International (but mostly white) culture, lot of expats, they cover your relocation - They are investing in brand a lot, it does look good on CV - They use metrics a lot so decisions are made with better arguments and predictions - A lot of different, specialised departments and posaibility to collaborate with them - Nice offices - From the outside everything looks expensive and like a dream - Development budget and unlimited holiday - Expensive swag and trips - It’s not for people with weak mental health or good manners
Svantaggi
- Constant stress, pressure and chasing impossible deadlines - Money and greed is management’s top priority - Most of people are there because it looks good on CV - People have breakdowns all the time, especially in Zurich - There are groupies, even though most of people will deny this - For every bad review they make a new employee to write something positive on both Glassdoor and Joberty (Serbian Glassdoor) - I am pretty sure they hunt your “unlimited” vacation days and do perfomance metrics based on that - They say they are there for you but you are easily replaced, especially if you disagree with somebody on higher position than you, god forbid your manager - Managers are mostly very egoistic and are not accepting feedback (please PLEASE do not confide in them, they will get @ you sooner or later) - They are firing people like crazy, when I was there, they fired 8 people in a month. After some time I heard from a colleague they fired a whole team which was earning most of the revenue… I still hear they are firing in bulk, people who were there since the beginning or new people, but wothout really a reason. (I was not given a reason but I wanted out anyway so I didn’t fight back I left and never looked back) - Think twice before you speak. Some confidential talk with HR will be shared with wider group.
