Pros

Pro? I was lucky to have great people on my team. And the job paid the bills (barely, however). These are two few pros to even fulfill the 20 word minimum in this review.

Cons

Not even sure where to start. Toxic environment. International colleagues hide behind mean anonymous emails. People don't stick to basic communication manners. Terrible workload, terrible pay. No payment for overtime, which is required often. Hard work is not appreciated the way it should be. In the shortest amount of time people working here get miserable. High fluctuation. Expect us to work with insulting rates for linguists. Try to mask the bad work environment through changing "benefits". No upward mobility. Half of the people seem to stay for their visas, the other half is looking for other jobs.

Pros

Great people, often too busy, sad or angry to build strong liaisons. My team was awesome (Engineering, Quotes and e-learning).

Cons

Everything else was a complete disaster. For a start, management is terrible. Non-experienced, no seniority, no meritocracy. Hardly 6 or 8 people at the office live like kings, partying hard, and the rest is miserable. If you think you are going to join that selected group by drinking with them, doing overtime or bullying another colleagues ... sorry to say, you are not going to be part of that aristocracy. Salaries are all below market, but they still demand impossible skills from the candidates. As they pay peanuts, young and junior employees are forced to work extra hors and bank holidays. You are not supposed to have your own life outside the company. The company is about to be sold, as the two CEOs have been declare uncapable to run the company and it is very likely that the main managers at the BCN office will run away or get fired by the new owners. I could keep writing pages and pages about the company, but just check the rest of the reviews (not the shameful fake ones).
