Pros
  1. Good work-life balance
  2. Good exposure to latest technologies
  3. Good pay package
Cons
  1. No process or structure. So when you have an issue, you don't know whom to approach. In my view, you cannot approach anyone.

  2. Too much political atmosphere.

  3. Some people are tagged as great irrespective of their contribution, performance, or intention. Therefore, other people lose the drive to work.

  4. Too much favoritism.

  5. Leadership is not trustworthy and really careless. They seem to just enjoy status and don't really care for work.

  6. Leadership pretends to hear unbiased reviews from employees. But they really track who the critics are. So if 20% of people are not satisfied with something, they fire 50% of them so that leadership can show a satisfaction percentage improvement next year to 90%.

Advice to Management

Have good performance metrics for upper management. They are the people behind Walmart, a laid-back company.
