Pros

good company, strong results, strong and sustainable business model, IT

Cons

very much performance driven, in some areas a hell lot of a pressure Be careful when signing a work experience contract (WEC): HR is using the high unemployment rate in Spain to hire staff as cheap as possible (minimum wage?, 12k Euro p.a). Contract duration max. 2 years. HR will block you if you want to change to a permanent position earlier than that. Make sure you negotiate properly with your line manager in order to circumvent this.

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.
