Pros

- You learn how different companies operate, how they generate cash, and what makes them risky or stable. - This builds commercial awareness that’s valuable long-term

Cons

- Promotions often depend on seniority rather than performance. - Many teams have limited upward mobility because the structure is flat. - You can stay in the same level for years unless someone leaves- Because promotions are slow, managers sometimes choose based on personal preference rather than merit. - This can create frustration, resentment, and a sense of stagnation.

Pros

Work-life balance, good benefits. There are leads that are good.

Cons

Low base pay. Re-org here and there. Following the reorg, management seems to be desperate to fill positions internally, hence, just hiring individuals due to tenure instead of competence.
