Pros

- Very well-known global organization with a strong brand - Mostly good colleagues who work hard and are trying their best. My team and the people I work with are excellent! - Better leaders vs before! Some of the bad ones have left already - Good compensation and decent benefits - Career movement is slow but possible! There is evidence of internal mobility and career progression across the company.

Cons

- Budget challenges require teams to be more conscious of costs - Lots of change. Employees need to be flexible. - Mandatory 3x in office but there is some flexibility allowed - There are some teams that are SO TOXIC... They bleed negativity and make it seem like the company is horrible when it really isn't. Yes, there are challenges, but all companies have challenges. Be wary of the kind of people you are getting your advice from and discern for yourself.

Pros

- Working environment - Great team

Cons

- Cost reductions led to more difficult working conditions - Salary is under the one of many competitors in Vilnius by 25% - Loyalty after 8 years does not pay, you are still the same to them - The volume of work went 180% higher to me and the annual bonus slashed, which made me understand that I am no longer valued there
