Pros

Some leaders are ok. Some people are ok Pay and bonuses Lifestyle and transpo allowance Hybrid work days

Cons

Culture sucks, cliquish, competitive and not collaborative (they just say they are) They value visibility over talent. There is a padrino system, people getting passed on for promotions, being rated lower and used as scapegoats just so other (non-deserving) people get promoted Leadership doesnt care about the people. The vision mission are all fluff They hire executives from globe who dont know how to lead, directions are confusing and often times, not strategic Some bosses are just talking Heads not really doing much but being paid a lot They give feedback but only focus on weaknesses, and do nothing to support the employee on how to improve. Career development and promotion roadmap are unclear Lack of Psychological safety

Pros

At scale, the company has robust HR and finance systems. You can join a variety of activities. Work schedules and locations are flexible. Compensation is competitive, with strong bonus opportunities.

Cons

Disorganized and image-driven, with a focus on awards, taking credit, showy behavior, and ingratiation. Many leaders/managers lack technical expertise and favor manual policies over technological fixes, which creates heavy bureaucracy. Leadership practices are outdated and exhibit many harmful traits: large power gaps, HIPPO, special treatment for certain people, leaders who avoid accountability, condescending behavior, a culture of blame and public shaming, micromanagement, and inappropriate language in meetings — overall a very unhealthy work environment. The frenetic pace is largely self-imposed and stems from poor planning at the management level rather than industry demands.
