Pros

Complementary hot beverage (1 cup max per day).

One of the best annual parties.

Cons

Expect you to work on weekends with very minimal OT. No work-life balance. Expects you to work hard as well as long. While working, expects you to learn new things. Management does not care whether you stay or leave. Every year, a minimum of 5% layoffs are a target.

Advice to Management

Help employees to grow on their own defined skillsets and guide them on how to use them in the current environment.
