Pros

Great ideas but sadly lacking in any ability to execute in a normal way.

Cons

The company seems to have no real direction and systematically alienates employees and customers by its inability to commit to a plan. New ideas and company directions seem poorly thought out and announced publicly with no follow through.

Pros

Good paying, hard working members of teams that you can engage with.

Cons

No real praise or acknowledgement from higher ups. Management seem to look down on those in lower job roles, and you can be ghosted if you have a concern. No real culture, and if you make a mistake you can be made to feel like you're stupid or be humiliated for it.

Pros

Some really nice colleagues who adds value

Cons

HR in USA have no clue how to run Europe, they think they can treat employees as they do in the US, hire and fire. Rubbish HR support as they have no clue what they are doing, they are disorganised and are not fit for purpose. I really do not think they know what they are doing and no support towards employees, they are one sided and without listening to the full story always take managers side. The benefits are not great in comparison to market standards. Need more experienced staff members and more of a mixture of talent.

Well that is interesting, since we have fantastic offerings in our European countries for all of our employees and have gone the extra mile to ensure that everyone has opportunities, is safe, and has collaborative support.
