Pros

The benefits are still good, with a hybrid working model and nice people.

Cons

I have never seen such a massive gap between the values declared by the company and the way of working implemented and promoted by the middle management team. This discrepancy has worsened over the last 12–18 months, at least in my current organisation. Hiding behind processes and engaging in CYA practices has become the norm. It’s discouraging to witness such a transformation.
