Pros
Competitive Compensation & Benefits: Salary and perks Job Security: Stable contracts—low turnover among tenured staff.
Cons
Outdated Senior Culture: Average tenure skews 50+; decision-making stays within a small, long-time clique Poor Communication & Feedback: Promotions and shifts happen without advance notice; feedback is only given when things go wrong. Limited Junior Development: Young hires are often treated as task-doers, with few formal mentoring or career-path discussions. Leadership Style: Upper management can be socially awkward, sometimes curt in meetings, creating a tense atmosphere. Inclusion Challenges: Efforts to hire more women haven’t stuck—competitive ‘old-boys’ culture can feel hostile.
