Pros

Young, international team when I started with a good manager who unfortunately was transferred to another team later on. Friendly, familiar atmosphere in the earlier years of the company (before it turned into a meat grinder)

Cons

- 6 days of annual leave in my first year, 10 in the second - ridiculous. - Lack of leadership and support by management - unwillingness to spend 50 US$ on software that could make your work so much easier. - Daily overtime taken for granted while you got scolded like a 10 year old schoolboy for being 5 minutes late in the mornings. What a joke! - Low salary compared to the size of the company and to competitors - Almost my whole team (10 people) left the company within a year due to lack of perspective and leadership - Bi-polar manager in customer service (TO) who constantly talks trash and puts subordinates down in front of everyone. Putting up with his mood swings is a complete nightmare
