            Cons

            the company has a toxic feel, little to no team work plagiarism is par for the course. The yearly review system is designed to create silos instead of teams.

                    Avoid Layoffs Allows for a good work life balance

                    Cons

                    Company hasn't allowed office supplies to be ordered in 6 months and has stopped all Merit raises for this year. Appears to be out of money. Every year for the past three years the health insurance plan has been downgraded. Almost no opportunity for advancement

                      Flexible work life balance and working from home and advancing fast in market. Good career opportunities and overall great management team.

                      Cons

                      Probably a little lack of structure growing too fast too soon and does not have the structure to support it. Some departments like HR and IT are really lacking in skills and communication.

                        Pros

                        Most of the people you will work with are very nice! I've often stayed after working time is over to support, as most of my colleagues did when we have to finalize something. You will have the opportunity to work for one of the matket leaders with modern software and equipment!

                        Cons

                        Totally incompetent HR locally in Bulgaria! Every interaction you will have with those 'managers-wanna-be' will be terrible! When you talk with most of the people they will tell you the same. The main problem is that from corporate they don't see that as an issue or don't care. Therefore this stays without any consequences except for people to get demotivated! Work/life balance in the company is extremely hard. There is always a crisis. When one is over the next one is coming..
