This will not help the company to survive...

Pros

The work environment and management are good, with a healthy work-life balance, but this only applies to certain teams, not universally across the company.

Cons

Old employees are paid less (or receive worse salaries) compared to new hires, even when holding the same job title or responsibilities.
