Pros

International and with the ability to connect internationally and gain experience

Cons

Nepotism and backward thinking regarding technology. Not recruiting the best person for the job (barely any cold application coming through) but just giving the job to a person depending on how longed they worked for the company, even if they dont have the proper skillset or education for the job.

Pros

Great flexibility and work life balance. Great people and business.

Cons

Not much room for career advancement. A lot of decisions are made by the headquarters in Italy and don't always make sense for the US.

Pros

Free pasta, knowledgeable coworkers who go above and beyond to help train new people.

Cons

Supervisors who don't manage their employees appropriately or fairly. In order to keep your job best to keep your head down. Don't ever give anyone any reason to single you out or your days are numbered even if your a skilled competent technician. There is Noone who will save you from being discarded.
