        Pros

        Flexibility in working hours and holidays Usually less of 'pressure cooker' situation Health check up free every 2 years and decent medical benefits for your dependents (not parent)

        Cons

        Management is gradually going from great to worst (specially middle managers are too biased) Inconsistent pay and no slabs or standards. A 4 year exp may be earning higher than 10 years depending upon the 'division' & 'manager' HR division exists for name sake. CS is no more what CS used to be earlier

                Pros

                - Nice employee restaurant with good food - Nice co-workers - Very good facilites to work in (lots of space, coffee machines, smart working) - flexible working hours (block times 9-11, 14:00-16:00) - remote working possible

                Cons

                - too much work load / not enough employees - incompetent people are hired that are unfit or unwilling to learn - too many managers that do not fullfill any purpose are hired - tools are strongly restricted and only approved versions/software can be installed on the pc - technology is like 10 years behind / very old

                  Pros

                  - Cultural values, mainly inclusion/diversity and charity programs - Flexibility in hybrid work and working hours (but now with more pressure to go to the office at least 3 days a week) - Friendly and respectful environment - Work-life balance is good (depends on the position)

                  Cons

                  - Salary is not annually reviewed and there is no transparency (you are assigned to new roles, with more responsibilities, but with no salary review; no visibility on salary range vs roles/positions) - Performance review is just a formality and does not correspond to any compensation: you can get the highest rating without getting any bonus or salary adjustment - Job instability due to the ongoing merger with UBS (still no information on how many employees they expect to keep) - Legacy issues keep being rubbed under the carpet due to a lack of investment in people and systems - Lack of overview and acknowledgment of processes: everything is so divided that nobody wants to take accountability and there is no end-to-end view

                      Working hours are relatively flexible as long as you can deliver your work on time. Good welfare. Relatively good work & life balance.

                      Cons

                      Promotions are very slow especially in Back Office IT.

                      Development Engineer

                      Had a peculiar 3-month interview with a scientific organization. Initial online presentation, followed by an unexpected in-person interview, still evaluated by the committee. Salary undisclosed; only relocation package mentioned. The team was satisfied, awaiting HR director approval, requesting references. 2-3 days later, before sending references, informed they chose another candidate. No response to emails; HR silent. Was I backdoor checked?

                      I have a 5 year gap in my work history due to an illness. How do I explain this? I can't lie, SSD is on my background check as a previous employer. I am on it and looking to re-enter the job market and get off of it, but I understand it is a reason for employers to pause in hiring me.

                      Senior Associate

                      How do you interview for a position when you are under-qualified based on seniority but not based on skills? I currently serve as a senior associate for a reputable consulting firm, and I have an interview for an associate director position. However, I am just shy of the minimum YOE requirement included on the job application and relatively young (though I meet all of the other requirements). Any advice on convincing the hiring manager I am ready for a mid-level role?
