Pros

Prague department is in general quite decently skillful and you can meet outstanding engineers working there. Working conditions are just great: powerful laptops, huge curvy monitors, comfortable chairs.

Cons

Absa is based in South Africa with the headquarter in Johannesburg. Everything that needs to be organized going to be a problem. If your colleagues are in Africa, then it is you who suffers from the remote communication. It is them who makes key decisions and your Prague department is basically to do what they say. Your voice can be heard but rarely taken into account.
