Pros

Good experience offered to those earlier in their career looking to receive a lot of experience in a corporate environment. Additionally, individual employees are friendly, and helpful. Due to limited growth and promotional strategy a lot of 10+ year people in the same position that are forced to run and fire fight. Recognition for short-term vs long-term tasks is the value proposition.

Cons

Standard Processes are close to non-existent. Key Principals of operating a business are not prioritized leading to a lot of organizational chaos, internal competing silos, and inefficiencies in waste management. Leadership focuses on politics, favors, and winning narrative for career growth all while stagnating focus of their employee's well-being. Accountability for missed goals, objectives, and budget is non-existent causing negative impact in strategy, resource alignment, and deferring important responsibilities. Do more with less and put leaders in positions to campaign is the name of the game. An ocean between executive leaders, senior leaders and then middle management down to individual resources regarding transparency, communication, and honesty. Oil and water scenario.

Pros

Standard methods, cloud infrastructure, and reliance on in house staff over contractors makes it very easy to implement safe, fast, consistent changes. You will be valued as a human and you will have a voice within this company. You can make a career here. Your coworkers and immediate leadership are all talented and intelligent individuals who actually know how to do the same work you are doing.

Cons

AI rollout and unevenly applied hybrid work made things difficult for employees with disabilities and those that lived far from office who had traditionally worked remote or for tasks that do not lend themselves well to AI overhead
