Pros

- Solid company background - Very smart top management - Engineering skills are in the focus - You might find yourself in a five-star company if get assigned to a good project with good management

Cons

- Depending on the actual project you get assigned to, you might find yourself in a very different company than you were hired for - There is no clear (if at all) communication about: how to change project (without leaving the company/getting no salary raise for years/no promotions etc.) - Compensation policy is intentionally vague - Some people managers seriously lack the honesty and integrity to be good leaders, they are soldiers (sometimes working against their people's interests) - You might find yourself in a zero-star company if get assigned to a bad project with bad management

Pros

Amazing team—very collaborative, supportive, and welcoming from day one. Strong leadership, my manager is incredibly supportive and gives you autonomy to take ownership and bring new ideas forward. There is a well-structured environment—processes are clear, well explained and continuously improving. Great opportunities to learn; many trainings and tools available to support professional growth. People genuinely care about each other and create a positive work environment.

Cons

In some cases, coordination across teams can take extra time
