Overall rating: 2/5
Employment status: current

Was good 20 years ago, but now....
Pros: - Multicultural workplace
- Access to new technologies (when you can find them)
- Interesting project
- Excellent first time job before hooping in the marketplace
- Excellent work/life balance (probably depends the job/location)
Cons: - Too much bureaucratic process for everything
- Salary stuck since several years
- Frequent change in process and organization, looks like nobody know where to go or how to do it, it's just going with the marketing flow and the buzzword of the month.
- Money and stock price first, customer seconds, employee last
- Better to be a manager if you want to survive, you can even be a manager of only 1 or 2 peoples and stay in place for years....
- No team spirit unless it benefit the individual, as you are ranked compared to your pair (even with the so called new system) everyone is an "adversary" around you.
- Unless you're a manger or in the top 2%, you will probably be fired before having any kind of real promotion
