Pros

Admin staff is the best I have worked with

Cons

Too many egos to feed. Cant get out of the way of the Narcissist CEO and CFO. HR can not make change happen and does not have an independent thought to save itself, and so the circle of life continues. Unless you enjoy working 16 hour days and getting pounded on a monthly basis, this may not be the place for you.

Pros

Well, if you understand the "winning" strategy" = "cost reduction by not developing any new product+"throwing very valuable but relatively expensive employees out of the bus" +"interpret poor performance as political headwinds" + "blame the new economic changes and technological advancement for revenue loss"+"constant corporate strategy changes with clueless management argument"+"talking about nothing but financial spread sheet"+"good at making some slides"+"very good at political engagement"+"no career ambition but working"+"just want a job"... then this company is a good match for you Most former employees would find much better job opportunities outside

Cons

well, this is a best place to stay if you have no ambition and don't care about under-educated and subpar co-workers in a boring corporate life. Especially if you are new graduate and don't ask for a good pay. Minimum respect to employees, no growth unless you are connected, largely outdated IT system, ignorant (under-educated) work force, condescending/arrogant demeanour, discrimination. This is a company running 80's IT/management system, no mentorship Management hates to understand new ideas and view new technologies as threats rather than opportunities. When "headwinds" happen, the only strategy is to reduce "head counts". Much more marketing/sales staff than product engineering team.
