Horrible politics, toxic culture & high turnover

Pros

You will meet genuinely talented people... before they leave when they see this place is all about politics and sucking up to leadership.

Cons

Leadership turns a blind eye to everything. They only care when they make money. They know politics abound there and don’t do anything about it. Oh and the culture is toxic.
