Employment status: current
Experience level: Junior

Bad experience...not very ethical (shareholders company all about max. profit)
Pros: The people and the various cultures is rewarding...
Cons: Sweatshop mentality and a poor work/life balance as you must work 45+hrs weekly to reach measures (where so much reduces your ute) and receive no annual reward (base increase or otherwise), even if you meet all targets/measures. Deceived by being hired for one role with identified tasks/duties and quickly realized it was not true. Pushed to work more than 48hrs/week regularly (against labour laws). No employees at current location able to work from home. Expected to work outside my areas of expertise (with no training). Expected/pushed to work some weekends.
