Pros

None. This place is a black hole of toxicity.

Cons

This company allows their managers to repeatedly harass and discriminate against their employees. They do not care about reports made to HR about these managers creating a hostile work environment even when you e given them proof of the behavior. They will do nothing about it and turn their heads when the behavior continues.
