Pros

Willing, ready and open to salary negotiations. Able to work a little in every segment. Parking, restroom, not shift work.

Cons

Was initially hired for one region. 2 weeks later I was told to do 3 additional regions, without being told by my direct supervisor neither director who initially hired me. Hence, was covering 75% of the administrative back office of the entire EU alone, worked very long hours without any extra pay, once I left management hired 3 people to replace me. Location not ideal if don't have a car, total employees on site 55 at the most. As a result, after the 1st month I was ready to run away from it, absolute abusive and a real place of exploitation, to be avoided at all costs !!!
