Pros

Extremely fast-paced learning environment. If you love chaos, this is the place to be.

Cons

If you're a strong performer, you are punished with an increasing and never reducing workload while the other 80% of your colleagues are given barely any responsibilities because they can't be trusted to be given real work. Most middle management can tell who's actually reliable, but for some reason upper management picks favorites that don't align with who's actually doing the heavy lifting. There were so many complaints to HR about the culture of the Finance department over the years, and it only worsened over time. The turnover rate is ridiculous. If HR gave everyone a truly anonymous assessment of the leadership, they'd find a lot of feedback reflecting an extremely low employee morale (to put it nicely).
