Pros

None that I can think of

Cons

Top level management never seems to know what they’re doing and changes direction all of the time. The company has lost all of its reputation for being a good place to work. The environment and culture feels incredibly unstable and most jobs are here today and gone tomorrow. Employees seem to all feel overworked and most are looking for other employment.
