Pros

Relocation was offered for Russian employees

Cons

Employees were told that there would be relocation to Portugal, but then it occurred that it is only for R&D department. Less then a year later they cut off life allowance thus making people pay for a "house from home" that is extremely expensive in Armenia. Sport and transport won't be covered either. All this was announced 2 weeks in advance. Contract signed for work from home turned into 2 days in office and later might change to 4 days in office. Relocation is offered to Turkey (with earthquakes) and Romania, where employee needs to go alone and family can join after 8 months. In both locations schools are not covered and international schools are extremely expensive. No compensation to leave is offered in Yerevan either. They treat people like pigs...

Pros

- Friendly teammates that are willing to help

Cons

Where to begin? - Since starting at Veeam, the internal IT Support team has been cut to a THIRD of it's original size. From an original team of 10+ people, only 3 of the core team remain. Three USA members are left to support over 2,000+ USA employees and try to solve the flood of tickets that arrive in the ServiceDesk queue. - These last layoffs which I was a part of, 1 desktop support engineer, 1 support manager and myself were laid off. - My role was replaced by TWO other service desk analysts in Costa Rica that are getting paid pennies. Both of them combined make less than the salary I had. - Veeam is trying to cut costs anywhere they can, all while making record profits - Technology leadership doesn't listen to input from lower level management on pain points or suggestions on how to improve work-flow or help out the internal IT team - US-based IT employees never received any promotions. All employee promotions from the global IT team happened in Prague / Bucharest offices. - Absolutely no room for career advancement. Managers don't support growth. They silo you into a specific role and work you like a horse.
