Pros

Stable salary, easy hiring process. Work hours may be dynamic, for better or worse. Good people in some teams.

The job itself does not require a lot to know and is hiring-friendly to juniors. A lot of parking space.

Cons

Bad company atmosphere, no opportunity to advance whatsoever, ridiculous bureaucracy, terrible management, and heinous firing process.

The work itself has barely to zero self-development, and you will find yourself stagnating after three to six months of working in the company.

The work itself will cage you to specific resources to work with, which means you have zero dynamics and zero opportunity for self-growth.

Some teams may be incredibly loud, and the office may end up extremely dirty at the end of the day.

Terrible location for the main office.

The firing process for employees is a humiliation ritual.

Advice to Management

Have clear goals. Have an actual integration step for the company instead of preset expectations for new employees who may not know the full company bureaucracy and very odd company culture.

Interact with team members and give actual updates on their work. Do not wait a year to tell them they are doing well, then two months later tell them something went wrong. Immediately tell them how you feel.

Hire people and let them work together in a way that fits and respects each individual.

Make sure the team workflow is set so the whole day does not cascade into a twelve-hour workday as meetings are dragged, moved, changed, and the whole task-making process is faulty.
