Pros

- The junior-level colleagues were friendly, warm, and a pleasure to work with

Cons

- The workplace culture was often toxic, with some staffs from the headquarter showing bullying behaviour toward colleagues over minor mistakes. - Leadership often portrayed themselves as flawless, while dismissing high turnover as being caused by low salaries. In reality, a significant portion of departures stemmed from poor management practices and negative work culture. - Communication was a persistent issue, with unclear or contradictory messages that created frustration and confusion. - Micromanagement was common, with little trust placed in junior staff, which created a stressful and discouraging environment. - Compensation was below industry standards, and opportunities for salary negotiation were almost nonexistent.
