Pros

It is a extremely multicultural environment, which is super positive. Lots of trainings are made, including scrimmagings (not my thing but some colleagues appreciated it).

Cons

The upper management gives you super hard goals to reach and ask to be highly aggressive in terms of sales. This means that even team members are competitive one another, sometimes in a very unfair way (usually justified from the management). All the countries are supposed to sell the same, without considering the actual economy of the country. As a sale person you are required to: prepare quotes (which is okay), work on your own collections, cold call, prepare at least 300 mailers per month by hand (seriously), mediate with PMs and clients. No language skills are actual required, just Sales ones. No benefits at all, just an annual Sales conference that you will be able to join in after reaching specific goals (the sales conference came out to be a full-immersion 3-day training). Would not recommend for the daily stressful situations. High turnaround.

Pros

The job was remote and very flexible.

Cons

The manager at times, could be unprofessional. She was a little passive aggressive and often no-showed or was late to meetings. She would make false promises and could be a bit condescending. The pay is also not great and despite recruiting hundreds of contractors, my requests for a raise was denied. The rate for contractors was also very cheap.
