Pros

The people and teams are close and help out one another when in need. There is some flexibility in check-in hours

Cons

Absolute lack of top management; they leave us middle managers to work things out by ourselves, provide no guidance or support, but then blame it on us if things don’t go as expected. There is a concerning growth of discomfort and frustration in the people working in the Buenos Aires office. The lack of compensation strategies hasn’t helped much (salaries have not been reviewed for over 1 year now). HR is not a place to go look for support, quite he opposite; they’re the layoff patrol, looking for people’s distress and using it to crack them. Some people, especially in the top management of creative, are abusive and mistreat employees out in the open and in front of others. There is a perception of a total lack of direction; no one knows where the company is headed as we watch rounds and rounds of layoffs that keep happening since early 2017 in Buenos Aires.

Pros

-paid well -company has a great reputation which helps a lot with your career -good insight and experience into business marketing techniques

Cons

-a lot of big egos, favoritism. -management imagines they are still a cool small start-up company and are oblivious to the employees who do the work which make the company successful. they seem to sometimes resent newer employees for ruining their small,cool,rebel self-image yet are happy to reap the benefits of running a large company -didn't keep promises. I volunteered to do extra work in exchange to be put on a better project, got a pat on the back, and then they promptly forgot about me - you don't get any credit for doing good work unless you are senior. however you can also easily slack off and you won't get fired.

Pros

they dont requires great academic background to get the job. they are some really talented individuals around.

Cons

if you arent in the top management, you are always in the disposal list when management makes the wrong decision. 90% of the promotion only occurs in the same league, self hard working contributor who dont hang out with them will nv gets a chance. increment are pathetic for for lower rank troopers. long working hrs , not appreciated.
