Pros

People within operations are very hard working. Opportunity to work with some very skilled/knowledgeable people. Depending on the projects you are assigned there can be the opportunity for growth. The company has a lot of potential with some very talented staff, however please see cons below.

Cons

Poor work-life balance for many personnel. Various departments understaffed yet expected to compensate with over hours. Senior leadership do not show any genuine regard on staff wellness or addressing the current work-life imbalance. There are some very talented people leaving the organisation due to stress or burn out. Poor performers are too easily tolerated along with suspected cronyism in certain positions.

Pros

Great team up to director level. Good place to start career, however not many open positions in US

Cons

Contracts are often unclear not including all needed services, leading to financial overburn. The company relies on multiple tracking systems, creating inefficiencies and frustrations for employees, and prioritizes hiring in low-cost regions, which are known for high employee turnover.
