Pros

It used to be the people but they're all gone now

Cons

Useless with money Clueless "Hatchet Man" CFO Projects often scrapped before completion The financial incompetence of the senior leadership would be funny if it didn't affect so many people's lives. Here are some of the conversations they have in the boardroom: "Let's acquire this failed business and then immediately lose interest!" "What does this software project do? Save the business time and improve efficiency? Boring - bin it!" "We can't afford to pay a bonus this year… Let's do it anyway and then make redundancies later!" If you are thinking of joining Mind Gym in CDT, be prepared for stressful work in 1990s technology as the company has failed to invest in modernisation. If you're thinking of joining any kind of digital team, don't do it! They don't value technology and will pull the rug from beneath your feet in time for Christmas.

Pros

Lovely Coworkers in the organization.

Cons

Morale has taken a huge hit, and a lot of people are already looking for a way out. The work-life balance and overall culture have become genuinely toxic. I witnessed a coworker get bullied out of the organization by management a few months ago. Overall a toxic environment. MindGym is a lawsuit waiting to happen.
