Pros

For a few months in the beginning of my employment I thought there were plenty of pros. Unfortunately they are so heavily outweighed by the cons that are not worth mentioning. Within a few months of joining you'll find it very easy to leave, no regrets.

Cons

Efforts are not judged on merit. If you kiss up to the right people you'll do well even with mediocre performance. The most capable, loyal and skilled people are exploited until they get really sick of it and leave. The least marketable stay the longest - BI only. I don't believe other departments had this issue, at least while I was there, but might be wrong. Some roles never stay filled for long and talking to former colleagues there, nothing seems to have changed. Rotten shady 'culture' is encouraged directly from the top. Anyone, on any team. who's been there for more than a year will tell you that history repeats over and over in this department. Same management, same self serving actions, same bad choices, same outcomes.
