Pros

Great people to work with. People support outside-of-work endeavors. Interesting time for the company, given the slowdown of marketplaces. Lots of opportunity to learn cross-functionally. People are very open to meeting and discussing their roles.

Cons

Highly political, advancement can be difficult. Promotion process is unclear and time between promotions is also cloudy. Senior management can be hard to trust. Their communications seem very artificial and overly produced.

Advice to Senior Management

Senior management needs to be more honest with the staff about the state of the business. I would push for a clearer promotion process.
