Pros

Pros were the things which were there 4 years back. Everything changed in a very short time.

Cons

A legacy of 180+ years compromised in just recent 3-4 years. A great place to work becoming average place to work every passing day. It is becoming a trader type organisation where leadership is just looking for quick wins and get out. The company was previously working like an investor type organisation. The previous leaders preserved the brand. The current leadership seems like being in a race to deteriorate the culture and brand. There is no more nichness here. It’s gone and gone for ever!

Pros

Interesting problems and good access to latest tools to do the job. Motivated coworkers

Cons

Upper management is absurdly disconnected from doing anything remotely valuable. They are useless. All vision and innovation comes from the lowest levels. We really don't need directors and above at this company - they take large salaries and promote the idiots instead of the innovators.
