Pros

On Hilversum company site, there is a wild green garden with a small terrasse where it is nice to have lunches.

Cons

A strong hierarchical company where it is not advised to think and speak up. Awful way of handling the covid-19 situation, the employer requests employees to be on-site despite the government speech highly recommended to stay home. None of the discussions taken can be discussed, blaming and mobbing culture.

Pros

Learning opportunities People are nice and willing to teach/learn

Cons

No room to move up, though you’re encouraged to grow your skillset Very few hiring opportunities, no backfilling of positions In order to move up, you must show you can perform at that next level, while still doing your current job Very few promotion cycles (1-2/yr) Ineffective management Recent layoffs (2025-2016)
