Vantaggi
All the staff is nice Great benefits, supplementary health insurance, supplementary cancer insurance, good work equipment, nice offices (WFH during the pandemic), coffee and snacks delivered home during the pandemic, activities like yoga, relaxation pauses. They care about your mental health, option to buy up to 15% of your after taxes salary into SNPS stocks at a discount (ESPP program, Employee Stock Purchase Plan), worst case scenario stocks are 15% off, best case scenario due to market the market crash, doubling my initial contribution. Annual bonus that amounts to 1 extra monthly salary. My annualized salary after taxes with benefits like a maxed ESPP and spread monthly are just under 2 million CLP. 15 work days vacation.
Svantaggi
Could pay more considering the employee level of performance (I'm certainly not near the best) and the overall expectations when the US based teammates earn 3x your salary. Engineers poached off by big N companies. Global extra benefits (such as days off) generally do not apply to Chile. In the world you're encouraged to take the day off, in Chile you're encouraged to spend one of your days off.
