Great company but very hard to get a promotion

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good benefits, projects, and culture.

Cons

Very hard to get promotions once you are an employee. If someone external comes, they might get it faster, so dislike that they do not appreciate their employees and give them promotions, and when there is a need, they instead give to someone else.
