Pros

Top-level payment among all companies

Cons

Nobody cares if you are working extra hours or not, or if you take leaves. Your manager only cares about jobs done, and you will be in trouble any time you are behind.

Some managers will smile to you in 1-on-1s and trash talk meaningless things. You don't know what to expect or how to improve until they slash you in a performance review.

Extremely competitive colleagues who could work overtime to get an advantage.

Stone-cold faces in the office and everyone is unhappy.
