Pros

Very good/familiar atmosphere at the Hoofddorp office, with Friday nights out, a shared office, most lunches eaten together, young co-workers, small project teams, free coffee/juice/water/tee as well as fruit and sweets, subsidised lunch (sandwiches).

Cons

If you don't want to live in the rural areas, you have to commute (by train) for up to an hour from Amsterdam centre, Utrecht or Rotterdam. Processes not well automated (templates) therefore often work is done double.

Pros

The layoffs were handled quietly and unexpectedly, even though there were some early signs. They didn’t share who else was affected, but it was clearly more than just me.

Cons

They’re doing layoffs in phases, and my position was part of the most recent round.
