Pros

nothing particular aside of a few nice people there

Cons

The company piles up too much workload and expects a high level of accountability while in return the company doesn't provide any benefits for it. Starting salary is usually around a few euros/hour, but they lure employees with some fairytales of possibilities to advance quickly and earn much much more within months, although that never happens. If you do job well, the management will burden you with more responsibilities, however, this doesn't come with the pay raise but they say, if you do your job well, you'll get one. And then they won't mention the pay raise anymore and they will leave you with all these extra responsibilities and even pile more at some point. They do appreciate your hard work and contribution, but with a pat on the back and "good job, pal", but once a year when they give pay raises, you'll get a slap in a face with a 5% per year. That's not a raise, that's a humiliation. And when I say "they" and "management", that is of course the CEO because he makes all the decisions. On top of it all, CEO constantly finds reasons to argue and offend employees and acts as a small tyrant most of the time. He also tirelessly checks the online reviews, so whenever someone says the real truth about the working conditions, he has one of his close associates who clearly lack backbone to submit disingenuous reviews that don't t reflect at all the actual work environment.

Pros

I've spent a year at systeme.io as a customer service representative, and the working environment is fantastic. There's always support available to address any concerns.

Cons

During certain periods, there may be high-pressure situations requiring quick and efficient work. Also the founder is looking to sell the company, which adds to the stress for some

Pros

Good pay, real opportunities to grow, and for the most part, people were genuinely kind and happy to help whenever you needed it. The schedule flexibility was a big plus, too. I have nothing but good things to say about the managers and the overall team, outside of the support department, at least.

Cons

No one really stepped up to make sure people were doing their jobs right and playing by the rules. There's a lot of gaming the system going on, and the frustrating part is that it only gets noticed when something goes visibly wrong, so everything else slips through. You could be cutting corners the whole time and still get celebrated for strong performance numbers, whether or not you're genuinely helping customers. Team leads aren't keeping close enough tabs on any of this, which honestly makes it pretty demoralizing for anyone who's actually trying to do things the right way.
