Pros

If you know the right people and if your manager is willing to work with you, you will certainly get to where you want to get. A good culture in which to work.

Cons

People do work crazy hours and are switched on all the time it seems. The appraisal process is not as transparent as could be.

Pros

Can’t think of 1. Not even 1.

Cons

Pay is the lowest compared to similar company with the same role. Upper management speaks to staff with a patronizing tone; cutting them off, and talking down to them. At times it felt like they purposefully were attempting to find things wrong instead of working together as a team to meet objectives. Understaffed. Fully expected to do the work of a team of 6 despite being a team of 2 for example.
