Pros
Overall, the company is awesome and great to be in, especially during my tenure as that was the time the exponential growth was happening. Both the physical and technology infrastructure was scaling and too many new high technology applications were being introduced and rolled out enterprise-wide. Adding that a number of global sites were being established and rolled out as well. A truly a great time to be in!
Cons
The issue boils down to just like every company, your department's leadership - director or manager/s. How well versed they are in terms of managing people is the make or break factor in this company, unfortunately. Finance, for example, is a very good thing to look at. It's leadership from the top down to the immediate supervisor are so well aligned and provides the opportunity to those loyal and hardworking employees. I know as I've seen it, some employees who came after me from that dept, got promoted twice within a 6-months period while I, who's breaking my back doing hard work ever since is not even being noticed. Even ridiculed and bad mouthed (at one time) by my own leadership. In my department, it was Batman and Robin, who dominates it. They managed our team as if we're pawns on a chess board. If you make a mistake or do not agree with their decision as it doesn't really make sense and ends up grossly expensive, they will pummel you down to the point that you will feel worthless and unwanted. These two are so good in working together that they can and will do everything to make whatever they want to happen since as I heard Batman in one occasion - "Oh I can do that, I own this dept!" I've seen it happened to another hardworking very talented employee. Since he doesnt concur to their decision of rolling out a project where it will cost the company short of some $$$ to almost 7 digits of spend for a ridiculous project on top of an undergoing project that Batman decided to shut down simply because he didnt liked the employee! Even bad mouthed this good and hardworking employee to the top leaderships and eventually fired the person! So yeah, the company is awesome but it all depends on your department's leadership. Oh and btw, these two are so good working in tandem to hide their BS that they even promoted a lazy employee who cant even pick up his own. Leaving his team lead doing all the leg work! They did this just to show to the management they promote within, unfortunately, someone who is deserving from their eyes but in reality this person is not!
