Pros

• Occasionally learned new things and gained some experience. • Some coworkers were great to work with. • The company presents itself as data-driven, though this is questionable.

Cons

• You are just a number—no real recognition for hard work. • No clear path for career growth; promotions happen by chance, not merit. • Extremely high turnover with constant management changes. • Bonus incentives are misleading—company performance is poor, so bonuses rarely happen. • Outdated technology, despite the company claiming otherwise. • Layoffs are frequent—four major ones in the past three years. • The company’s business model contributes to rising housing costs, making homeownership harder for average people. • Disorganized and operates more like a struggling startup than an established company.
