      What is important when choosing an employer

      Pros

      It seems that almost a few weeks ago we were celebrating the magical time of Christmas, who could have thought back then that after a couple of months we would be facing a global pandemic... Today I am celebrating one year at Western Union and to be really honest - that one year passed like one month. During this quarantine I would like to share my biggest findings: - The team is one of the keys to your success. Meaning that you can be the best individual contributor in the world but without a good team it gets pretty hard to move forward. - Company's culture and its' values. It is really important to identify whether your company's values coincide together with yours. It is far more satisfying to do the job when you believe in the purpose and the cause. - Strong leadership. Without having good guidance it gets pretty hard to move forward and develop oneself.

      Cons

      None cons that I could think of.

      Cons

      - Can be hard to balance private and work life as expectations are kept very high - Company tends to care most about revenue and not people, but this is changing rapidly though! KUDOS! - Else, not much more to mention about cons
