Pros

Fast working environment, travel opportunities, great events, great people, support from Colleagues is fantastic, annual parties in Amsterdam, opportunities to move to different locations for work

Cons

Extremely high expectations to deliver results in very short time frames, yet very slow to assist if an issue arises. The company does not have structure in many departments, hence a lot of confusion and no transparency or accountability or support from management. Very sad that they lose great people because of these factors. Be careful of the 'glitz and glamour' as often these are just a buffering and often a small reprise in the scheme of things.

Pros

- Amsterdam once a year for free. Even your passport gets reimbursed. - We are very spoiled. We get free stuff all the time! - Diversity. I've never met someone from Russia before, or someone who speaks Japanese. -Looks good on a resume -Hard to get fired. If they are firing you, you'll know why because they brought it to your attention multiple times before they give up on you. - Realistic expectations - as someone with no kids, i find the job pays well. This would depend on your living situation though.

Cons

It's a job, there's always going to be something to complain about. Favoritism is strong in my office. A lot of managers hang out and party with employees. The office has a high school vibe to it at times. There's tons of drama. If you want to advance fast in the company it's best to befriend as many managers as possible. Booking would rather promote someone based on manager review than their actual numbers! Another con is that it's hard to get fired. It's a pro in some ways but bad at times because there are managers and employees that should be fired.
