Pros

Your luck on which "BULLY" is your manager

Cons

1. Most of the staff is busy in saving their own place all the time and just simply don't care about their team members growth or any good. 2. Good organization with lot of bad management, Some don't even have ethical sense. 3. Don't spoil your career by joining this place. 4. Best To Avoid. 5. Abusive management, you will be considered as slaves. Be prepared to suck up a lot if you want to get ahead in the company.
