Pros

* Benefits are good * Relatively stable, hard to get fired * Compensation is at least market average (definitely not leading)

Cons

Unless you’re a chosen favorite early in your career, you will get little to no professional development, and you will get raises which only keep up with inflation. You’ll be functional, nothing more.

Pros

Long day but flexible working hours Good employee benefits

Cons

Career opportunities is left to those with connections, disregard capabilities and experience, simply for stepping stones to up the ladder. Management with non related experience, leading to disconnected leaders with employees. High number of overseas "talent".
