Pros

Abundance of opportunities to learn, great learning resources, some good people and leaders, remote and flex ways of working,

Cons

Too many processes, too much governance that are slow to make decisions, creativity and out of the box strategic thinking hindered by fear and too many SOPs, hire consultants to improve structure and processes but they only give back what we have already done or talk a lot and say little creating more churn, increasing pockets of toxic leadership that continue to get promoted, absolutely no psychological safety whatsoever!

Pros

Work from home flexibility and the summer and winter shutdown periods are a nice benefit. Good health insurance.

Cons

Management style can be controlling and micromanaging with expectations that shift without clear communication. Employees are held to high standards but not always given the support or clarity needed to meet them. Performance concerns are documented quickly without full context being considered. Culture does not match the company’s public image.
