Good place to start up in the industry in Romania

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

For Production. Good working environment, the skill requirements for performing are not high and there are a lot of friendly people. Most of the time the atmosphere is relaxed, the hours are flexible and the location is not bad. Most of team leader are reasonable most of the time.

Cons

Low pay and even lower chances of reasonably paced advancement. Huge egos walking around, monstruosly huge. Promotions are done on favoritism, thusly plenty of the low to mid manangement are unskilled impostors. The management is very tight lip, with little transparency below.. Little chance to become a senior without upsetting some of the high profile managers in some capacity and declaed unfit for seniority/,management.
