Pros

- Flexibility of working hours - Huge company: many different fields, projects, work areas

Cons

- Very 'political' work environment; pretty much the 'survival of the fittest' - Constant gaslighting from the management as if everything is perfect; although pretty much everything works with band-aid solutions - Inefficient at best; plain mundane at worst work most of the time - Poor rewarding
