Pros

Certainly GF is and will be among the most dynamic, demanding and interesting companies for the next couple of years. Huge, global investments in high-cost countries in state of the art high-tech. What an experiment that is complete the opposite of what all other global companies are doing

Cons

Contacted via head-hunter GF offered more than one challenging job. Interviews via phone went well for all parties involved and we all agreed to proceed further. And suddenly it turned out, that there is no budget for the positions. I have thought of a bad excuse to hire someone else. But via private contacts the information is confirmed. So the GF HR kept the head-hunter busy, kept a few candidates around Europe busy, wasted theirs and other peoples time with various telephone conferences - and then HR´s figures out there is no budget ? Come on guys, don´t do this again !

Pros

Very supportive team and management to work with from the beginning. Many training classes need to be taken in moving forward to align with the company policies and technical procedures. Good benefits and competitive salary. Have a very positive plan for long term career and educational support tuition. The interview and hiring process are long but informative and responded promptly.

Cons

There are many training classes to take so it may put more stress on a new hire if you do not have a good plan.

Pros

Everyone is willing to help and the training is actually good training

Cons

If I didn’t know someone that worked since I was going to overnights I didn’t really meet anyone on my team except my manager once. Also I wouldn’t know who to reach out like manger wise if I didn’t know someone who already worked here
