Pros
They will mention work trips to Europe including Paris, plus generous time off.
Cons
I was hired to support the company’s expansion into the US market. As one of the few American employees in a predominantly French organization, I faced increased scrutiny and inconsistent standards compared to peers in Europe. Shifting priorities were often not communicated to me, yet accountability remained unchanged. I often saw a disconnect between feedback given and the outcomes I delivered. Raising concerns or asking for clarification often felt risky rather than encouraged. Daily communication with colleagues was usually dismissive or undermining, which negatively impacted my morale and confidence. I noticed a gap between the company’s values vs my experience. My workload was exceptionally high and unsustainable. The ambiguity from leadership, bureaucracy-driven culture, and bullying from colleagues didn’t work out for me. I recommend candidates ask detailed questions about expectations, feedback processes, equality and resourcing before joining.
