Pros

The company has a strong training program and benefits that are at a higher level from similar companies in the same industry.

Cons

Management does not have sense of workload or work balance. The amount of work is extremely high and they do not allocate additional resources to mitigate it. There is no strategic direction from upper management. These factors and the personality of expats cripple the huge potential of the company.
