Pros

The physical office environment is good and there is a nice pantry. Colleagues are mostly friendly but not helpful due to overload.

Cons

Human Resources do not help employees at all in times of staff issues. Restructuring has been too long too intensive. Expats who were brought in do not understand local needs.

Pros

There is great flexibility in arranging one's hours. Hmm what they say and what they do... well which side of their mouth do they want to speak from???

Cons

The organization is working to go paperless. However, there are LAYERS of redundancy wherein one is required to re-enter the same data multiple times. This creates an opportunity for errors and way too much file handling. There are long time employees clinging to the former ways of doing business. I am talking about 25-30 year employees attempting to block forward progress b/c it causes them to be uncomfortable. Deadwood is the word that comes to mind here. I get it that their experience is so valuable but the lack of flexibility and adapting to new more efficient ways of work is just bogging the entire organization down. This is 2014 not 1975. Let's get away from using crayons and brown paper bags.
