Pros
- Good Pay and benefits - Lovely people despite the London office despite not working with them day-to-day -Good socialising initiatives
Cons
Communication is very fragmented. For it's namesake, despite it being a Global company, the company only really thrives in the Spanish speaking countries and it's in your best interest to know Spanish at a conversational level if you would like to progress within the company. -They mentioned that English is the preferred language spoken and official language in the company but the more projects you go on, it is evident that this is not the case and you can quickly become ostracised for not knowing any Spanish. -Like most service companies they have a bench (which is a holding place for you to upskill and find new projects) which is called DOJO. However, this is self-managed, the resource team cannot help find a project and the portal they tell you to use "Open Careers" is outdated and is not primed for UK opportunities. In DOJO, there is no way you are able to hear about opportunities and the upskilling is only limited to internal tools. Albeit, the DOJO leads try their best to make it feel better. -Networking to find opportunities is your best bet but unfortunately due to constant restructurings, the people responsible or would have a better idea of the pipeline no longer work for the company or are focused on other opportunities. -There is no formal HR, so if you ever have a serious issue you will discuss such matters with the Benefits lead who tries their best but it's not formal HR. -You are supposed to be assigned a Career Mentor/Experience Lead when you find a new project but that doesn't always happen and if not you will be penalised end of year. Career Mentors are responsible for supporting with career growth but the within the company there isn't really within the UK, so it's just a tickbox exercise. -Work-life balance can be close to non-existent depending on the project you are working on. -The company structure changes every 6 months after an all-hands.
