A global name that connects you to external clients fast!

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

Established global brand. Small hybrid offices. Peer-to-peer training and onboarding. Do your time, make your connections, move on.

Cons

Around the clock working hours. Lack of compensation. Leadership is mediocre management. Your peers are your lifeline so stick to them - learn from them how to best handle poor managers. Don't drink the kool-aide for too long. Do your time, make connections, jump ship. The skills you learn from your peers will land you in far more healthy environments in tech (with a much better culture), promise.
