Horribly sexist. HR does nothing about it

Pros

No pressure environment. No one even goes to work on Fridays. If you do not care about your career and have an easy time, this is the place for you.

Cons

Super sexist and racist environment where people can openly say "let's not hire female engineers" or "I don't like working with Indians," and no one bats an eye. Human Resources refuses to have a mandatory training for managers about bias because "it is hard," but there is a one-hour mandatory training for a paper printer.

Advice to Management

Establish some values, both to be a decent human being and a decent technical leader.
