Business Outlook

Pros

I cannot think of any pros because I've experienced a great deal of mental trauma.

Cons

My immediate manager was a big bully. I brought it to the HRs notice and no action was taken. I finally quit the job. The manager is unprofessional and most of them focus on office politics rather than work.
