Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits are pretty good and you get all government holidays

Cons

Upper management micromanages and threatens constantly. Requirements have changed almost every day since I started just a couple months ago and there is no clear outline of expectations but they will be quick to tell you you're doing it wrong.
