Pros

General shift. No other pros, just filling due to mandatory criteria of five words.

Cons

Whole company is a con. Worst politics ever. Only those who know to butter are promoted. Managers behave like God. Fake promises. Employee harassment is a common issue if you are in the bad books of your supervisor. Skip level promotion is common if you are a female employee and know how to butter your manager.

We are really sorry to hear your thoughts about the organisation. May be your perception is basis a certain experience you may have had. However, it would have been really nice if you spoke about it candidly with your managers / management, as we can tell you that our employees are very important to us and their well-being is our top priority always.
