Pluspunten
- Friendly environment (albeit largely remote due to the nature of the 24/7 threat intelligence work in shifts). - Managers cared about you and proactively encouraged your growth in terms of skills and career advancement. - Good to connect and work with people from multiple time zones. - The 12h shift cycles meant we did not follow regular work schedules, so sometimes we had stings of 2-3 or even 4 free days during the "working" week (Monday to Friday). - Shifts were 12h long, but you were never required to work more than that. On the contrary, at the end of your shift you were actively encouraged to switch off and enjoy your free time.
Minpunten
- Salary was OK for Hungarian standards but could have been better, especially if compared to other countries. - The workflow was largely standardized and could be monotonous (but it could also quickly become very intense), basically you monitored a given source and you decided whether or not to report an event based on the given guidelines, so there was not much personal room for personal approaches to what/how to monitor and report. - Shifts were 12h long (7am to 7pm), even though it was less intense/tiring than it may seem. We only had day shifts, but apparently this changed after I left and night shifts were introduced. - On the flip side, the shifts cycles also meant that sometimes we had to work during the entire weekend too, including in some cases Friday to Sunday or Saturday to Monday included.
