Pros

- Benefits - PTO but sick days are included and less than normal holidays

Cons

- Bad and old style of management. Upper management is treated as nobility and only dictate around without much respect to people beneath them. Most of them have limited managerial and technical capability, and live in their own world. Lots of micromanagement and giving not much freedom and space to people under. - Reorg nonstop and losing a lot of people. All time high attrition and no realistic measure against it. - DEI just lip service. Upper management does as they please without much diversity or inclusion. - Red tape everywhere. - Bottom of the barrel compensation with very low bonus program. Merit increases less than half the inflation rate while making record profits and giving practically 0 merit increase last year. - No in place promotions. Need to change teams to get promoted. - Very hard to grow unless getting along with the "right people"
