Pros

Free, disgusting, watery chicken for lunch every day. Sometimes, when the previous day's food isn't finished, it's served the next day. Yummm...

Cons

Pushy management. Absolutely no work-life balance.

(Oh, unlimited vacations, you say? Let me dump 10 projects on you before you leave, and after you finish, then you can go.)

Want 7-8 hours of sleep like a normal human being? Too bad, you're only going to get a maximum of 4 hours. Expect to work 8 more hours after you get home, and the cycle starts over again.

Advice to Management

THINK ABOUT YOUR EMPLOYEES. THEY ARE SUFFERING. THEIR FAMILIES ARE SUFFERING. YOUR DEADLINES ARE ARBITRARY, AND YOU'RE WORKING THEM TO DEATH.
