Tiny company, egoistic management

Pros

Good number of leaves, although taking leaves may itch some managers. Challenging problems to deal with.

Cons

People who have stayed for longer duration are Complacent and fill up the management and ruin the work-life balance for new recruits. Some directors have clear discriminative attitude towards individuals even those on whom they heavily depend on. Principles promoted by higher management are limited to those catering to customers. There's no employee centred principle. Appraisals are majorly abused to benefit favorites.
