Business Outlook

Pros

- Easy interview process - Very little accountability - Pockets of amazing, talented people - Lots of holiday pay - Looks good on a resume

Cons

- Crippling bureaucracy means it's nearly impossible to make real impact - Management chain fond of making short-term, cost-cutting decisions that make them look good, but are detrimental in the long term - Lots of lazy and poor-performing employees are tolerated, and even rewarded based on nothing more than seniority
