The salary part and benefits are good. They will try to attract you with the salary but after that everything is down hill.

Salary - Good

Dislikes

First, the amount of politics is huge. You will have a local compa y manager in india and/or a functional manager in Europe. That is the first level of conflicts. Then within the teams the level of frustration and the foolish ways I which the teams are structured is just out of the world. Lastly the organization has a habit of usi g pro action periods and their extensions as a method of intimidation . Overall not a health work culture.
