Uneventful employment

Pros

Fair financial compensation was the only benefit from an experienced person who knows exactly what they're talking about.

Cons

No clear direction from management, series of trial and error strategies banking on monopolized products and services that cannot be competed against. No knowledge sharing culture of any nature, did not learn a single new skill of any nature.

In transition so a lot of roles and functions are not well defined or at least that’s the impression.
