Pros

Unicorn. Not great too, so avoid.

Cons

Toxic Management: Leadership thrives on fear and favoritism. Constructive feedback is ignored, and dissent is punished.

No Career Growth: Zero mentoring, zero learning opportunities. Promotions are based on politics, not performance.

Overworked and Undervalued: Expect 12-hour days, no appreciation, and laughable raises—if any.

Micromanagement Hell: No autonomy. Every task is scrutinized to death. Management doesn’t trust the team.

Poor Work Culture: High attrition, low morale, constant blame game. HR is powerless or complicit.

Lack of Vision: Decisions are reactive, short-sighted, and driven by ego—not strategy.
