Pros

Great work-life balance, pretty decent salary but no benefits. No overtime required.

Cons

People were made redundant and had to leave the project only a few months after being hired (and moved especially for the job from abroad). The rest of us had their working hours reduced from full time to part time and eventually, a year after that, more people were laid off. The overall feeling is being considered nothing more than just a number, expendable at any time. Very repetitive job, no opportunities to grow.

Pros

Although RWS Moravia will probably be a lot different than the good ol' Moravia, I would still recommend. It has the "startup" feel as the work environment could be quite often chaotic. Which basically translates to "fun" and "frustration" at the same time. Expect to learn lots of new things often unless you are in Shared Services / Support department. Good thing is that there is very little bureaucracy and you can still make interesting things happen. Very nice culture (that is slowly disappearing over time) and pretty nice work environment. Very interesting clients with challenging demands and lot of room to invent new processes, tools & solutions. Usually nice people around to work with. Above average compensation and pretty good benefits ;-) Work life balance is up to you (always), so rating is pretty irrelevant

Cons

Don't expect Dev team to help you much although they are trying to do the best. Very little "standardization" which makes core repeatable processes often very sloooooow, frustrating and not very transparent. As usual, top management is pretty disconnected from the rest of the company although they are trying to do their best - or at least this was my feeling about that.

OK company

Pros

- great opportunity to work with Silicon Walley clients - opportunity for career development & travel (heavily restricted earlier in 2018) - benefits (quarterly bonuses, home office possible, flexible working time)

Cons

- senior management not aligned on a company goal/ vision, thus each is after their individual goals - lack of ownership for the main processes and programs (partially improved in 2017) - a lot of global projects ending with no clear outcome, yet used way too much time, effort and money - overtimes, long working hours (early mornings with Chinese colleagues, late evenings with US-based clients and Argentinian colleagues)
