Pros
A multitude of opportunities to gain experience because you will likely be solving problems on your own without support.
Cons
This was, without question, one of the most frustrating organizations I have ever worked for. The company talks constantly about innovation, quality, and continuous improvement, but my experience was that those values existed more on paper than in practice. Employees who identified problems, raised concerns, or attempted to improve processes were often ignored. Feedback seemed welcome only when it aligned with decisions that had already been made. One of the most demoralizing aspects of working here was watching leadership repeatedly make questionable personnel decisions. Meanwhile, employees carrying significant responsibility and delivering results were overlooked. There was a persistent disconnect between leadership and reality. Problems were discussed repeatedly, but rarely resolved. The same issues resurfaced month after month while employees were expected to work around them. Instead of addressing root causes, leadership often seemed content with temporary fixes and falsely optimistic messages. Management support was nonexistent. Employees were often left to figure things out themselves. Escalations frequently led nowhere, and accountability was difficult to find. It became crystal clear that raising concerns carried more risk than benefit. What ultimately drove me away was the growing sense that appearances mattered more than substance. The organization seemed far more focused on projecting success than confronting the operational issues that employees were experiencing every day. The most disappointing part is that there are genuinely talented and hardworking people throughout the company. Unfortunately, many of them are forced to operate within a system that does not value their expertise, listen to their concerns, or provide the support necessary for long-term success.
