Pros

1 hour lunch break daily that is strongly encouraged

Cons

Micromanaged, higher ups check your status online when WFH, if you are idle for more than 5 minutes, they'll ask what you're doing. If you hit traffic in the morning and are late you'll get reprimanded. No priority management, everything is a priority. Was told I should be working more than 45+ hours a week without being compensated for it.
