Pros

Some coworkers were genuinely kind and tried their best despite the madness. A few projects were interesting when they weren't sabotaged by internal nonsense,

Cons

-Working here felt like being trapped in a place that slowly drains your motivation. -The higher-ups care only about profit, not the people who make that profit possible. -The culture is poisonous, full of gossip, finger-pointing, and inflated egos fighting for attention. -Every day feels like a mental battle just to stay focused amid all the politics and favoritism. -Promotions are a cruel joke, given to the chosen few instead of those who actually earn them. -The constant exhaustion has become so normal that no one even remembers what genuine motivation feels like anymore.
