Pros
A salary means you're not homeless. And the regular non-exec employees are nice people, if a little too afraid to advocate for themselves (some advice - you deserve better than you're getting)
Cons
Mathew Cherian. Pure and simple. Bullying, secrecy and a blatant disregard for customers starts at the top. Careful when the wolf smiles at you because you're next. Management in general were a sad lot. They sat in glass offices arranged around the sides of the office with the regular employees huddled like sheep in an open-plan abattoir in the middle. Their rule was that every employee's desk must be visible by at least one manager, because what's trust? The star employees are the ones who are hogtied to the company by a lack of training and professional development. By the time you've been at Global Health for a year your industry skills will be out of date. Management loves it that way. And just to sweeten the deal, the health software they vend has more tech debt than a uni project thrown together overnight and over a few 6 packs. I'll leave you with one fond memory. I once worked through lunch because a customer was on the phone and really needed assistance. By 2:30pm I had assisted, so I went to get lunch. When I got back, my manager, who was locked in a glass office directly behind me, messaged me a warning to only eat lunch during lunchtime. Yes, messaged me a warning from two metres away. Merry Christmas, and welcome to Global Health.
