Pros

None. If you like being ignored whilst sitting at a desk in silence all day scrolling through pages of sales data and being made a scapegoat for anything that goes wrong then this is the only pro I can think of.

Cons

Everything. Managers are like the blind leading the blind, absolutely no training or support. Just left with outdated training documents to read through and then you get blamed for following an outdated process - which they never bothered to update on documents you're asked to follow. Culture of blaming each other and zero accountability by anyone. No support and a very cold environment, longer term employees stick to their own little groups. No due process is followed properly, don't expect any kind of proper feedback or coaching. Most people looking for a way out. You will also be expected to pay for your own Christmas party and work nights out.

We believe our people are our most important asset, and consider all input an opportunity to do better. This is why we conduct an annual employee survey and do our best to promote an open door culture. As part of our effort of continuous improvement, we have broadened our mentoring program to facilitate connection and learning across the organization as well as within departments.
