Pros
Overtime is not a constant once you're knowledgeable. There are some genuinely helpful staff. Company will last at least another 10 years cos cheques and giro payments are hard to kill off for corporates. Management has started to explore initiatives to bring the company forward, though they forgot to think of the load on the manpower.
Cons
Extremely clear boundaries set between departments in addition to blame culture ensures that initiatives to bring the company forward are always met with a lot of inertia. Unless you can get someone at the top to push things, the initiative is bound to get rejected. Too much politics is involved. There are some people people that should have been left by the way side but are still in the company making things hard for their own team. Management will pretend to close 2 eyes since it is not affecting them. Did I say blame culture? Yes, let me explain. Management - right from the low level to the top - are more interested to find out who caused the problem than how to solve the problem. Pinpointing the culprit comes first, solving the problem comes later. With this kind of culture, who will want to take on new responsibilities? Expect staff to use own phone to do things but some departments don't have phone allowance while other departments do.
