Pros

Company is ver slow pace Good for family life, particularly if you have young children Good if you have a second career/side business Good if you just want to get by and not care about career growth

Cons

Middle level managers are terrible at managing their people and very bad at communications, a key factor in success Incompetent, not well trained managers who are too caught up in the weeds and unsure how to delegate work Unskilled co-workers in some departments Many processes that prevent timely actions and innovation Company has many redundancies Lack of good communications from top to bottom, bad at keeping employees informed and engaged.

Pros

Limited knowledge transfer and onboarding support for new team members. New hires are often expected to figure things out with minimal guidance. Workplace politics can sometimes impact collaboration and decision-making. Managers may not always be actively involved in supporting team members or addressing concerns. Full-time employees are occasionally treated differently than contractors, creating an uneven work environment. Documentation and process knowledge sharing could be improved. Work culture can be stressful at times, leading to challenges with work-life balance and employee morale.

Cons

Good exposure to projects and technologies. Opportunity to work independently and take ownership of tasks.
