Pros

If they place you in a good team, namely, collaborative and respectful, you are in for a pleasant experience. Good benefits.

Cons
  • Middle management gets away with too much. Mocking or unprofessional attitudes towards hard-working creatives should be condemned, not praised.
  • Contractors are treated unfairly, Fid's worst-kept secret.
  • Nepotism mindset, a secret pact to maintain a certain cast at the detriment of kindness and good work ethic.
Advice to Management

You should choose a company name that is more indicative of the company's practices and beliefs.
