Pluspunten
PointRoll has exceptional employees with great work ethics. The technology is exciting and the clients are among the most high-profile in the world. To an extent, there is also tremendous opportunity for advancement (but only to a certain level). I have seen people hired in entry level positions move into team leads and managerial positions in a matter of months. I have also seen people, young people, gain massive amounts of valuable experience. The vast majority of the employees are competent, hardworking and try hard to do a great job. The people are the best reason to work for PointRoll.
Minpunten
Simply: it's a sweatshop. A ten hour day is expected. Many employees in the operations group work 12-14 hours in a day on a regular basis. Weekend work is also *expected* when necessary. While this amount of work is the nature of the beast for the industry, when one considers that PRs profit margins are between 40-47% and when one considers the abysmal pay structure for line employees, it is an embarrassment. PointRoll is run like a start-up and the employees are paid like they're working for one... without the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Intimidation is a key tool in Management's arsenal. Disagreement--or even well though out alternate opinions--is not tolerated and typically met with nasty emails sent in the middle of the night. "You're lucky to be working here" is management's mantra. Most disturbingly, when employees choose to leave on their own, they are frequently harassed and even (yes) threatened by Sr. Management. When you leave PointRoll, you are dead to PointRoll.
