Good but bad!

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

Large organisation with interesting benefits and opportunity to work with some interesting people.

Cons

Management is very poor, lacking in personnel skills, a LOT of FAVOURITISM happening, no career progression nor clear benefits. You might get fruits and some crap Fika in the office, posh office, but that’s it. Pay is low, much lower than the competition. Management working part time… things don’t get prioritised.
