Pros

- Good compensation and the list ends here

Cons

- MENA team has toxic work culture - The TAT is always ASAP. You will be jammed with multiple requests of tasks at a given point of time. You receive setup requests in the afternoon for the campaigns that needs to go live on the very day in 4 different platforms and for 3 different regions and 2 different objectives. - You'll be given no respect at all - No casual leaves. Deduct paid leaves if you want to use leaves - Daily working hours - 10-12hrs. You login Indian time and logout Dubai time. Prepare yourself to work till 12am and more. - In their view, you're just a machine service their clients with no off time - Would never recommend anyone to join mena team. Join other teams.

Pros

Organized environment with processes in place for the most part. Good office benefits.

Cons

Really depends on your team and the accounts you're on. Low pay and little room for promotions. You basically have to be comfortable with the salary you start out with. The New York office isn't that social, even though there are events. Most people just keep to themselves. Just an average corporate environment. In the last few years, I've seen a lot of change after the most recent CEO was hired. They're regressing their benefits (less time for parental leave, no summer fridays, hammering down on timesheets and time off). Not really coming off as "people first" imo. As a PM, there aren't many opportunities for promotions. They openly say to all jobs that you only get promotions if there's an opening, NOT if you've worked for it. They're also increasing the number of jobs that are outsourced in Bangalore, clearly trying to save a buck.
