Pros

None. Run away as far as you can.

Cons

Management is some of the most inept I have seen. Management is allowed to behave badly, treat people badly, without any accountability whatsoever. Especially if you are a white man. Extremely toxic environment with heavy attrition, lack of transparency, Management in roles that they are not qualified to do with heavy internal monetary losses without ramification. The Board of Directors is dropping the ball by allowing this poorly skilled c-suite continue on as they do. No heart and could care less about team members. It is a let them leave mentality. Bad bad bad.

Pros

Some of the benefits are great.

Cons

There appears to be a significant issue with favoritism and conflicts of interest within certain areas of the organization. In some cases, close personal relationships between managers and employees seem to influence opportunities, recognition, and how people are treated. This creates a perception that being part of an inner circle is valued more than performance, accountability, and doing quality work. Employees who are not part of these groups can feel excluded, overlooked, or treated differently. There are also concerns about inconsistent standards, where certain individuals appear to have more flexibility or latitude than others.
