Pros

- Smart colleagues and generally supportive peer culture - Subsidised cafeteria is a nice perk - Exposure to interesting projects

Cons

- Very high level of oversight, with limited trust or autonomy in day-to-day work - Micromanagers are enabled and people element completely missing - Middle management often lacks decision-making authority, leading to inconsistent direction - Favouritism, inconsistent expectations and unclear pathways for progression or fair opportunities - Roles at the same level can feel uneven in terms of responsibilities and pay
