Cons

-Most of the workforce joined in last 2 years and quality of many recent hires is not the same as it used to be -Core culture of accountability, excellence, and 'like and trust' has noticeably diminished -Everyone is expected to be 'always on' and hyper-responsive which is exciting, but can be intense

Free food. The list of positives ends there.
