Pros
  • Little micromanagement. You are given a task, and it is up to you to manage your time to do it.
  • Very good work culture. No cutthroat environment.
Cons

Slowness typical of big companies.

Career growth can be very slow, depending on what group you are on.

Self-service employee tools can be counterproductive.

Advice to Management

Be more attentive to your employees' strengths and interests.

Work social events would be very nice as team-building exercises. We see very little of that. This would be helpful to keep the retention of younger employees.
