Pros

salary is fine, specially because of the bonus, and the compensation package is great since it includes nice rates for credits

Cons

enviroment is horrible, people focus on polytics and bureocracy instead of work... its like living in pure canibalism where everyone is trying to step on you in order to ascend... working hours are 12 daily... as an average... even if you don't have work, people's value is set based on the time they spend at office, not their achievements

Pros

Higher salary, opportunity for insiders only

Cons

Lack of training on systems, inadequate systems (CRM is internal product vs. well known working national brand), clients who know competition offers better product make sales difficult, cannibalistic/ territorial nature of fellow employees vs. team atmosphere.

A very mixed bag

Pros

global company, compensation is good. There are opportunities for advancement, although sometimes these opportunities turn out to be dead-end or placeholder positions that get eliminated at the annual 'cull'.

Cons

a lot of mediocre managers and department heads, loyalty is valued above competence, bureaucratic to the extreme, significant favoritism at executive level towards those with Hispanic surnames, adherence to 'global model' while ignoring US realities. The low-interest rate environment is really hurting this company…make sure you get a good severance package before signing onboard!
