Pros

It is a great place to work with good health insurance benefits. It is a very international setting with people all over the world working in the same place. I am happy to go to work every day and make my contribution to the world. If you have a great supervisor, then you are very lucky and also you can keep your spirits high even though your salary may not be that high.

Cons

Do not set your expectations too high as you will not be getting huge promotions or bonuses. Depending on your level, you are majorly underpaid or paid accordingly. There are 2 levels in the system: G and P. The system of levels is similar to hospitals where nurses are never doctors and you will never get the same benefits and recognition.

Pros

Great multicultural environment with people from all over the world, which creates a very enriching and inclusive atmosphere. Everyone is punctual and colleagues are very chill and easy to work with. The diversity of backgrounds makes collaboration genuinely enjoyable.

Cons

Very resistant to change and innovation. The organization tends to stick to old processes and is reluctant to adopt new technologies or modern approaches. Progress and improvements move extremely slowly, which can be frustrating for those looking to make an impact. its also unpaid which sucks
