Pros
  • Free access to Udemy & other learning platforms.
  • Chance of being part of multicultural teams.
  • Schedule relatively flexible.
  • Chance to work from home completely (hope it stays such, otherwise I might leave).
  • Periods when no work is required exist, which is both a pro and a con.
  • Private medical insurance available for some money that's deducted from the salary.
Cons
  • Some people managers are not made for being people managers due to lack of empathy and a tendency to lean towards the interests of the company rather than those of the employee they manage.

  • Periods when no work is required exist, which is both a pro and a con.

  • Salary could be bigger.

  • There is no 13th salary (as Christmas compensation).

  • There are no lunch tickets given.

  • The schedule is 9 am-6 pm, so you are left with very little personal time (could be 9 am-5 pm with a 30-minute lunch break; that extra hour as free time is precious).
