Pros

-Let's say benefits, -Maybe salary package for some teams,

Cons

Company was great but now it is on a downhill trend, They have cut down on benefits, NO real appreciation for hard workers, close to zero promotion and development opportunities, Very bad upper management decisions, actual VPs are being fired/ forced to quit, they claim to offer competitive salary packages but in reality they are under the market and now they are not even covering the inflation like they used to do for the past 10 years. Lots of teams are being overworked, micromanagement wherever you look, toxic and unprepared local management that lack accountability. Overall, the relation Company > Employee is going down and relation Company > Investor is going up, which depending on how you look at it can be good or bad.

Pros

Pay is good as well as benefits.

Cons

Poor organizational structure and lack of clarity: Roles, responsibilities, and reporting lines were confusing. This made collaboration and accountability very difficult. Nepotism and favoritism in leadership: Upper management heavily favored hiring and promoting people from their previous companies the "buddy system". Loyalty to personal networks appeared to matter more than competence or performance, which created cliques and made nonconnected employees feel like outsiders. Hypocritical company culture: Leadership frequently talked about "employee matters" values, strong culture, and employee well being, but in practice these were not reflected in actions. Layoffs, heavy workloads after staff reductions, and a focus on looking good on paper undermined any real trust. Frequent layoffs and job insecurity: Multiple rounds of layoffs created constant uncertainty. Remaining employees were expected to absorb significantly more work with fewer resources and little recognition or support. Heavy favoritism toward offshoring and lower cost international employees: Upper management strongly preferred hiring or retaining talent in countries with significantly lower cost of living because their lower salaries made departmental budgets and headcount metrics look better on paper. This resulted in U.S. based employees being disproportionately targeted in layoffs or overlooked for retention/promotion.
