Efficient But Monotonous Work

Pros: They are by far the most efficient company I've ever seen on just about every aspect. Every process is streamlined, and everything is carefully measured. I have learned a lot there.

Cons: Management is so good at getting red tape out of the way that your only job is to work. Eight hours of doing the same thing without any "side tasks" takes its toll quite quickly. In addition, things are not doing too well there, and I doubt it's the best company to grow with at the moment.
