A company with a very poor culture and environment

December 6, 2012
Pros: If you are brand new and could not find other options, perhaps you may get your train in finance here.
Remeber, try to switch to others as soon as possible when you get a chance.
Cons: 1. One will not be surprised to find those people who did not know much will be promoted to manager's positions if they know office politics.
2. A company that is practicing the "manage people out" strategy when one becomes 40+.
3. No career path future even if working hard.
