Pluspunten

Great place for people who have a high degree of office politicking and showboating.

Minpunten

A better representation of the culture would be a clinical building with office cubicles. Department leaders do not clearly articulate their vision or goals to teams, they're inexperienced and completely uninspiring. The HR team are not a people function, they are a business support function. Performance reviews are a display of power and influence over others. There is no benchmark criterion for individuals. They have surveyed employees to learn that the majority prefer a remote/flexible working style but despite the results, they reported that yes, while they acknowledge the results, they will be increasing the number of days required to be in-office anyway. They do not subscribe to the idea that happy employees generate more profit. The reality is, this isn't a company that listens or cares about their employees. They have many checkbox programs and exercises that do not hold real value. Many remaining employees are stretched and have no comfort in job security despite doing what is told of them. The best way to succeed isn't the resilience or grit - it's how well you play the game. You can't trust your manager - who likely have no influence - to help you succeed. You have to be prepared to advocate and make yourself visible to VPs or executives that make the unilateral decisions. This is an unsafe environment for your job security and mental health so if you decide to join, be sure the comp package balances that cost and sacrifice.

Good salary, thats about it

Minpunten

Toxic work culture, they want you to work from 6 am to 9pm. If you do not speak french or are not french you will feel like an outsider. Favoritism is big here, manager have their favorites and will feed them inbounds. Very hard to get approval to go to conferences, and there is no ROI, longer reps hold on to bigger name merchants for years even though they are not having any impact, and no one does anything about it.
