Nice perks overshadowed by toxic culture and poor management

Pros

The pantry is well-stocked, the benefits are decent, and at the very least, they don't cut corners on end-user devices.

Cons

Here’s an eloquent rephrasing of those three points into a short paragraph: Tech management drifts without a clear vision, while the infrastructure buckles under any demand for growth. To make matters worse, a toxic culture of blame permeates everything—where accountability is twisted into a weapon rather than a tool for progress.
