Pros

I gain some knowledge in my field.

Cons

The only word to describe this company's leadership is "terrible." The managers here have no capability nor heart to lead the employees. They are disrespectful and look down on employees. They are also condescending and insult employees often. I can attribute my negative experience here to the managers.
