Pros

Good health insurance Salary isn't so bad Nice co-workers Good location

Cons

Stressful environment, no training or supervision given No career progression, some people who work for over 3 years in the company earn 1,000 while those who just joined earn 1,100. Complete disgrace, this was already raised with workers union but no action taken More than 90% with whom I worked have never studied finance nor went to good university. Basically, they take those with bad education and offer salary they would not be able to get anywhere else and progress these people. As it is expected they stay for company for years earning just a little over 1,000 all their lives. Old technology that works slowly, procedures are outdated. Repetitive work, not interesting at all. If you want decent career and respect don't work here

Pros

The only good thing about this place were the Nespresso machines.

Cons

I rarely leave reviews, but future job seekers deserve fair warning. From day one, it was clear that micromanagement was a core operating principle here; not a quirk, but a feature. Managers routinely hovered over routine tasks, demanded pointless status updates multiple times a day, constantly changed directives, took credit for my work, and treated experienced professionals like they couldn't be trusted to send an email unsupervised. Any sense of autonomy was purely cosmetic. The culture was equally poisonous. Gossip wasn't background noise; it was practically a department function. Colleagues regularly spoke poorly of one another behind closed doors, cliques formed and hardened fast, and if you weren't part of the right group, you felt it. Unkind doesn't begin to cover it. Basic professionalism and common decency were in short supply. Management set the tone for all of it. Leaders who should have modeled integrity instead participated in the drama, played favorites openly, and addressed conflict with either complete avoidance or outright retaliation. HR was not a resource — it was a shield for bad behavior at the top. I left for my own sanity. The turnover rate here should tell you everything. Life is too short and your career too important to spend either in an environment like this one.
