Pros

Regularly seeks employee feedback : employees feel their voices aren’t always heard and no action taken Provides various training and development programs : access may vary by department/favourite persons.

Cons

Many employees are passionate about their work, but excessive workloads can lead to burnout and impact morale, still no recognition Employees may feel stuck, as there are few chances for advancement or professional development within the organization. Employee efforts often go unnoticed, leading to decreased motivation and job satisfaction. Shows bias toward certain employees, creating a toxic work environment and demotivating others. Does not represent or defend team interests to higher management, leaving employees feeling undervalued.

Pros

* I enjoyed the collaborative team culture. Everyone was supportive and willing to help each other. * The work-life balance was good, and the overall working environment was relatively low stress. * I had opportunities to work on large-scale enterprise products and collaborate with cross-functional teams.

Cons

* One area I felt could be improved was compensation growth. As my responsibilities and technical skills expanded, I was looking for opportunities that offered stronger career and compensation progression.
