Pros

The people are nice on a personal level.

Cons

Management does not have a clue what they are doing and it shows - from hiring people who are not qualified in their roles (from junior to managers) to lack of clear strategies across all parts of the organization, everyone in the company lacks communication skills especially those who grew up there. Systems are nonexistent. Offices are dirty and unkept. This place is a career killer - walk away.

Pros

There are a lot of talented, hardworking people at this company, which makes recent leadership decisions even more frustrating.

Cons

Communication around major organizational changes has been vague and inconsistent, leaving employees with significant uncertainty and little confidence in the direction of the business. Morale has declined considerably. Many employees feel that years of experience, performance, and institutional knowledge are being undervalued in favor of rigid policies and top-down decision making.
