For those into Bollywood - Vikram Vedha is so refreshing; finally a blockbuster with action for the mass and storyline for the class. Hrithik - take a bow; can’t remember the last time I was this engrossed in a Bollywood; music, cinematography, action, chemistry (between Saif and Hrithik), the supporting actors, twists and turns; honestly a must watch for bolly lovers 💕

    Pros

    Coworkers are great. No complaints there.

    Cons

    Senior leadership is severely lacking. VPs are reactive rather than proactive and do not provide any guidance to their departments. It’s clear some have never been VPs before and have no experience leading a team. Benefits are nothing special and salaries are mediocre. Always talking about DEI but senior leadership are the first to discriminate.
