Pros

there's a 5 word minimum but I can think of no pros

Cons

the good reviews on here are as fake and fabricated as they seem, written by the internal recruiter in an attempt to continue to hire talent because they can't seem to keep it it's not even worth the half decent base salary you might get paid if you're lucky - management is not shy about letting you know that everyone's salary is very different for the same position do yourself a favor and look elsewhere

Thanks for your review on GDS group, it certainly sounds like you didn't feel it was a positive experience for you. I hope to offer some clarity to the points you have raised here in your review, hope it is helpful. We regularly ask employees to review GDS, we are very keen on gaining reviews from across all of our departments, Glassdoor do not allow people to post reviews on their own companies, it would not be professional practice. To offer clarity on salaries we have a guideline salary for each role, we will always take in to consideration the previous experience every individual has and time in the role when looking at salary/ pay increases, if you would like to discuss/ talk through your points further feel free to email me, HR@gdsgroup.com. Wish you all the very best with your future ventures.

Pros

I love the vibe in the office - it's quite a young environment which means that there's always great music playing and lots of fun individuals to meet. The company is amazingly innovative, which is really exciting because it means that there are always opportunities for growth and personal development, as well as options to get involved in new projects. Attending live events across the globe is a huge perk, usually hosted in 5* hotels and restaurants across the world! Really great fun!

Cons

There are currently no options to work from home, I would like to have the option to take 1 day a week at home

Pros

I started at GDS over 4 years ago and worked in multiple teams and departments and can honestly say I have enjoyed my time here more than any other place I've worked. The support from management and colleagues has been great and I've progressed more in my career than I thought I would have in this time. The people you get to work with and eventually become friends with are second to none and I have had the pleasure of learning from some of the best people. Even more, I've always felt my opinion/suggestions are valued and listened to. Just like anywhere, things might not always go the way its expected but what is different is that help is always around the corner if you ask for it. Also doesn't hurt that the location is great

Cons

The peak of events season is tough and there is a lot expected from you
