Good learning and work/life balance. An enterprise which overall keeps me satisfied
Software Engineer • Current Employee
São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil
March 15, 2013
Pros: The main pro is probably the work/life balance policies of the enterprise, which really helps me by allowing a home office a couple of times a week, since I live a little too far away from my office.
The benefits that the enterprise provides are also great, and so are the learning opportunities within it.
Cons: The major cons probably are the salary, which isn't exactly the best on the market, but is still in the average, and also the fact that it is a huge enterprise, which causes advances within its hierarchy to be slow.
