Pros

None identified at this time - as I just need 5 words... NONE

Cons

The company is not organized at all. While leadership says employees need to be in the office, they themselves are comfortable working from home. The company recently changed its policy to require being in the office four days per week, making employees’ lives harder, while parts of the company continue working remotely. This policy was implemented within two months, with the expectation that employees adjust their lives just as quickly, yet the company does not provide adequate support—such as installing additional EV charging stations. Additionally, salaries are well below market rates, especially for data-related roles. Bonuses are effectively non-existent, as targets are consistently not met, so they should not be considered part of total compensation.
