Business Outlook

Pros

Very challenging and a lot of room to use new technologies. We had 30 little sites across two countries, and a very little budget so it forced us to be very creative.

Cons

There is no a clear IT strategy. IT is managed from other countries with not awareness of the needs in a particular country. Local management didn't have any technical skills.
