Pros
Lower level employees are some of the hardest working people I've ever met.
Cons
High turnover due to working conditions like bad work/life balance, having to do multiple jobs and force those conditions onto other team members. Passive aggressive management. Very hard to get truthful and direct answers. HR has history of gaslighting employees - make sure to get everything in writing and save it. Executive gave themselves large bonuses (it's in the public financial statements) when the company had a horrible year. They require teams to be in office but interactions once in office are minimal.
