Pros

The people in my office seem genuinely nice and passionate about their work.

Cons

No training, made to sit for months watching 20 year old videos. Meetings upon meetings upon meetings about company structure. Software built for Windows 95 used for main tasks, so painfully slow and inefficient. A global sales meeting that must have cost close to $1 million and took me away from my work and family for 2 weeks. Learned nothing at this GSM, an opportunity for old executives to spout old business cliches. Everyone works in individual cubicles making it quiet and impersonal and fosters no teamwork.

Pros

*great work space * benefits are very generous with Annual leave, pension contributions, healthcare, entertainment & staff perks itself are all above average. * To have an employee like the existing VP (Mr. J.GILLET) is a bonus as he cares for his staff & is very approachable & always looking to motivate staff & genuinely cares.

Cons

*Salaries are lower than market rate. *They do not care for the international employees as much as the US ones making work life hard and sometimes very frustrating if you are based outside the US. *Exit interviews need to improve making it more personal & having hire managers attend location or video conference to wish them farewell & thanks after the time & effort employees put it over the years spent with the company. *Legal Team UK need to be more proactive & hire better management. Very laid back approach.
