Long work hours (usually 8am-10pm) including some weekends Extremely vague job description (basically must do everything by yourself) Promotions heavily based on seniority Very unlikely to apply new technology (most products based on tried and true methods) Too much time devoted to unproductive, obligatory meetings/presentations and its preparations
