Pros

The usual bare minimum health, travel and lunch benefits.

Cons

Given the current location of the office, in the north western suburbs (Saint Denis) of Paris, while commuting and during lunch breaks one get's a daily reminder that you're not in France nor in any developed country. Also, please don't mind the hoards of rats while transiting from the lunch canteen and office, which one is bound to meet on the way to the office: so better get used to it. When the oppertunity arose to renew the canteen contract, the management stuck to the same premises. Inexperienced, abusif management with high tendancy of nepotism. Be careful when providing constructive feedback on how to improve process flows while highlighting inefficiencies. Using personal laptop during covid to do office work: company policy all throughout Covid lockdown. A lot of quetionable policies on ethics and good, organised common sense.

Pros

Some knowledgeable and reliable people work there.

Cons

Poor interview process, with no previous employment or background checks. Reliable employees not nurtured and therefore leave. Entrenched employees block routes to promotion. Victorian view of the working environment (this seems to be right through the management structure).
