Pros

So many people are apathetic that you can be too The oppressive atmosphere of shared adversity can make for some great complaining Um, bagels on Fridays? It's near Rough Draft Brewery? The company's going to tank soon so it'll all be over soon anyway?

Cons

Someone decided that hiring obsessive-compulsives was a great idea, and someone else decided they didn't care who they hired at all as long as their friends got jobs, so the result is a mix of incompetent nepotism-hires and cruel, arrogant, borderline-autistic MIT-diploma-flaunting bullies, with maybe 10% of the employees being actual humans with real feelings Coworkers have little to no interest in actually getting anything done, only in either avoiding all work or making themselves feel smarter than you, even though they're not Managers treat anyone ranked below them as if they're children or particularly stupid robots; managers themselves Upper managers have no ability to not micromanage, and can't see what's going to happen more than a step ahead Change is slow, if it ever happens, and is incompetently implemented when it finally arrives
