Pluspunten

Good pay (although not many benefits for consultants) Interesting work and intelligent and capable co-workers. International Environment

Minpunten

Bureaucracy and politics dominates the environment. Panels for employee selection are supposed to guarantee a fair process, but the end decision depends on only one person and requires little justification. Consultants are exploited and have no guarantee of being hired (although it is worth noting that this was not the case with me). Decisions are often subjective and place little care on merit. Opportunities of growth depend solely on the goodwill of your supervisor and on politics.

Pluspunten

- Good working experiences for LATAM people. - Very talented people from different countries. - Learning opportunities from different projects and resources. - Compensation to my needs is Ok.

Minpunten

- Some workers extremely overloaded. - Feeling or sense of fake urgency focused on anxiety instead of burocracy removal. - Sending emails or messages after hours and even overnight is NORMALIZED. Because is a sign that you are working more. - Leaving work on time is negatively seen. - There is a need to appear that you are working more than others so staying late, or getting home to work is the rule. - Human resources is not addressing this cultural problems but is silently impacting employees. - Competitive environment that sometimes could be toxic.
