Pros
  • WFH (3 days)
  • Work-life balance
  • Flexible hours
  • They encourage you to innovate and require you to study at least 40 hours every year.
  • Equipment
  • Employee association
  • Transportation, but it is not free.
Cons
  • Salaries are not bad, but they are below the market.
  • Month payment.
  • It is really hard to get a salary increase or a good promotion.
  • WPS policies are sometimes annoying.
  • They force you to do OT in order to recover time for your vacations (something that I've never understood).
  • They pay you the OT, but only after the 12th hour per day.
  • Some managers have favoritism with older employees.
Advice to Management

I think they should check salaries every year and compare with the market. They should give new people the same benefits that older employees have, and improve career paths.
