Pros

Some talented colleagues who are passionate about their work. Opportunities to learn, but this is overshadowed by the negative aspects of the company.

Cons

-The work environment is highly toxic, with a lack of support from management. There's a consistent feeling of being undervalued, and it's challenging to maintain a healthy work-life balance. -Management is out of touch with the needs and challenges of employees. Decisions are often made without consultation, leading to confusion and frustration. -leading to low morale and high stress. -There are little to no opportunities for advancement, and those who do get promoted seem to be the ones with the most connections, not necessarily the best performers.

Flexible work environment was great. They're pretty good on diversity.

Stressful work for sure, but I've heard it varies depending on your location. They do random layoffs.
