Pros

Mid-junior level staff were supportive, friendly and great to work with. Pre merger, great events and networking opportunities

Cons

Racism and lack of diversity across the board Nepotism in more or less every team Toxic management - no real assessments done on leadership capabilities but a real bullying and power trip mentality Bias mentality from management Budget cuts which left teams struggling/overworked Genuinely don’t think they will be around much longer. No flexibility Pre Covid

Pros

Entrepreneur mindset that allows you to grow outside your specific box, if you choose. Supportive leadership in helping you achieve your goals.

Cons

Have to pull for growth, not handed to you. You have to be aggressive and ask for what you need.
