Pros

Working from hone/Earning in USD

Cons

Bad working environment, every interview was monitored and scripted, we were forced (by taking part of our salaries) to not tell the truth about medical coverage to developers living in the US. The interview provess was made for the future employee to acept the offer before receiving the real offer, once the offer was accepted, the working contract presented different benefits. Working environment was toxic, not because of colleagues but because of managers since they had to pressure the recruiters to a certain level in order to keep their own jobs as managers, the possibility of being fired was present all the time as a way of 'threat' if you didn't outperform your colleagues and surpassing the benchmarks was mandatory. This is a 'temporary'job, it takes a toll on your mental health, lying to candidates who had families, children, and medical conditions affectd recruiters mental health as persons and as professionals.

Pros

Teammates were incredibly welcoming and supportive during onboarding, always open and available to answer any questions. The company provides all necessary equipment for the role, and the overall training program for the position is well-structured and thorough.

Cons

Internal processes were extremely inefficient. The platform used for managing global and internal procedures was consistently slow and buggy, resulting in significant lost time throughout the workday. Interview scheduling was also overly hectic — days were packed back-to-back with interviews from start to finish, leaving no time to submit candidate feedback during regular working hours. Completing this essential part of the role effectively required putting in additional unpaid time, which was not sustainable.
