Pros

Almost none if you are male. If you are smart ambitious and well-connected woman from an elite business school, you may go far, since the management team are becoming all female and they promote profile females.

Cons

Very little chance to get promoted. If you do get on a career development plan, they make you jump through so many hoops to then defer your promotion for another six months or longer.. and then if you finally get it, they dont pu up your salary straight away. When they eventually do give you a rise, it is usually peanuts while the senior management team rake in massive bonuses. The company is not what it used to be and they are looking now to cut costs as their main cash cow line of business is slowly dying. Then they obsess over things like engagement surveys which they use to fire you. Terrible.

Pros

- Learning opportunities, every day brought something new to tackle or explore - Decent benefits package that covered the essentials - Competitive salary relative to industry standards

Cons

- Management is aggressively enforcing a hybrid model, even for remote employees, and is rescinding previously agreed upon contracts. There's a glaring lack of strategic vision from leadership. - If you're based in Europe or North America, job security is virtually nonexistent unless you're in upper management. Roles are being shifted to India, Colombia, and the Philippines, with cost-cutting prioritized over talent, experience, or loyalty. - The forced migration to Azure, compounded by poor planning, is draining resources. And employees are paying the price — not just through increased workload, but by being let go in recent layoffs (October '25). With many of the positions eliminated quietly transferred to offshore. - Layoffs are being justified as “market alignment” and financial necessity. Yet at the same time, the company continues to absorb small to medium-sized companies, raising serious questions about transparency, priorities, and long-term stability.
