Pros

International company. Opportunity for global travel to visit and benchmark. Multi-cultural exposure is really neat to have experienced.

Cons

Leadership style in Americas is top down, do not ask questions or even think about stating any ideas. Focus on the short term bottom line leads to very poor decisions that derail or cause destructive results for the long term all in the attempt to avoid being screamed at in monthly 'business reviews'.

Pros

Plenty of parking, close to highway

Cons

Workplace is toxic, dysfunctional, and psychologically draining. Management is the root cause of problems, fostering a culture that tolerates: Harassment Intimidation Favoritism and nepotism Sexism Employees are expected to remain silent and continue working under constant pressure. High levels of: Employee burnout Stress Overwork Turnover Human Resources protects the company and management rather than employees. Complaints are often minimized, ignored, or redirected without meaningful resolution. Issues are widespread and known by many employees, though some are reluctant to speak publicly. Prospective employees seriously reconsider working there, the company presents a positive image externally but has a deeply unhealthy internal culture marked by poor leadership, lack of accountability, and low employee well-being.
