Pros

They invest in growth Great team Great compay values Nice salaries

Cons

It’s a small multinational company You can get stuck in a job for years Depending on the location you can hit a job grade cap that is way lower than what you could achieve in the US. Salary ranges are good if you compare them locally, but they’re not outstanding if you compre them internationally

Pros

Company investing in new products and higher growth markets

Cons

Over the past five years, there has been a significant decline in employee loyalty and incentive programs. Equity compensation, such as stock options and RSUs, was previously accessible to mid-level managers but is now strictly reserved for directors and above, reducing long-term incentives for a large portion of the workforce. Additionally, an increase in micromanagement and administrative red tape—particularly regarding strict scrutiny on all spending—has hindered productivity. The frequent practice of cutting budgets to meet short-term quarterly Operating Income (OI) targets is ultimately compromising our long-term revenue growth.
