Pros

Good benefits Fast moving Easy to move up

Cons

Chaotic Culture (immature and idealistic) Constantly hammering you about values of inclusion, but this is one point they never really follow through on A company which is great on the surface, but have absolutely no care for their employees. Team leaders join and quit on a whim. Workers are either entirely overworked or underutilized. Worst company I ever worked at

Pros

Competitive base salary relative to market standards. Free lunch provided daily, though breakfast and dinner are not included. Benefits and perks are minimal and fall short compared to industry peers.

Cons

An organisation with persistent issues and a culture that prioritises short-term execution over long-term strategy. Decision-making is reactive and lacks transparency, with leadership frequently shifting priorities without clear communication and zero accountability but expect their people to mind read. The concept of work-life balance is non-existent. Long hours and weekend work are normalized from day one. Ince you sign that contract they own you. Professional development is not supported. The HR function is operationally ineffective and largely disengaged from real employee concerns. HRBP's are incredibly difficult to partner with. Internal systems are inefficient, and heavily monitored. Control is centralized, with critical decisions often made by stakeholders with limited global knowledge, operational insight and market understanding. What is presented externally as a high-performance culture is, in reality, a politically driven, high-surveillance environment marked by fear, micromanagement, and instability. If you're seeking innovation, leadership integrity and genuine growth, this really is not the organisation for you.
