Business Outlook

Pros

Flexible time. Good work environment. Pension. Health insurance. Life Insurance.

Cons

Salaries are low and kept frozen for over 5 years. Managers don’t care about employees and constantly make false promises to trick people on staying. Only selected people can work from home. Over 20% of employees leaving every year. Contractors are given only 3 months contracts, and are notified at the very last day that their contract won’t be renewed.
