Better than my expectations!

Financial analyst

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

At my location, the people with whom I work are very friendly, helpful, and team spirited. There are a lot more team building activities than I had expected before I started working here. There is a great focus on safety in the workplace, and the company is committed to ensuring its employees' wellbeing. The pay is competitive within the industry and has a lot of potential to grow according to your performance.

Cons

The company ranks its employees but doesn't share your specific place in rank to you. They will tell you what bracket in which you fall (top third, bottom third etc), and your compensation is tied to your rank position. (This is only a con for the poor performers!)

An application call center - not even close to USA offices

Business Outlook

Pros

- Good pay, better than in other software companies - Good location, in the most expensive area of Argentina - Sometimes you get free food in the safety meetings

Cons

- If you are interested in professional challenges and scientific computing, this is not the right company - In order to climb in the hierarchical tree, you need to be a boot-licker most of the times - You can never make technical decisions since they are always imposed from USA - Safety policies are overreacted - Security policies are ridiculous and insulting - You are invited to lots of interesting training sessions held in USA but you can never attend since they are not budgeted - Excellent company if you like to crouch in front of your monitor waiting for orders and commands from your team lead
