Pros

Family-Work balance is great on paper

Cons

You like your ego stroked? You love to strike the ego of peers? You feel great in an overly political environment? You love echo chambers and wants to be part of one? Don't forget Cargo cults! They have everything for you there.

OK Company if you do not have the desire to grow.

Customer service representative

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Company is OK if you do not want to grow out of your position and always stay at one point.

Cons

Good people leave and People that are friends with the Management will stay and get promoted. Sad, but true. This was said a lot of times and thats why people leave.

The Worst Company I Worked so Far

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

You have a job and a salary

Cons

Very stressful environment, employees constantly work under pressure with no break, one of my colleague ended up in hospital because of stress related issues. Overtime is a daily unpaid routine. Meeting and events are mostly fixed outside of working hours, occasionally during night hours too. To be a good performer and gain a decent bonus you are expected to work weekends and bank holidays. This is not a family-friendly company.
