Succesful company, depressing place to work at

Pros

- Great stability, if you like working here or need steady income, you can likely stay here forever without getting fired or laid off. And they have cool pension. - Working constantly with outdated system can actually make you look really fast and proficient when you move to other companies to use up to date systems. - Having to work in business attire everyday can make you look like a pro in front of friends when dressing up for weddings or mafia themed parties.

Cons

- Managers are like gods in this company, don't disagree with them, pretend to really like everything they are into. - Your out of work personality and lifestyle is judged here and will affect your career development within the company. Since employee personalities are so suppressed at work, there are a lot of unhealthy gossiping floating around. Very old school and boring work environment, strict work hours without project based flexibility or much option to work from home.
