Pros

Work was good and challenging

Cons

Too many politics by my Boss(not a manager) and his manager. I worked in a central groups so the impact will be very high on the organization. HR is not proactive and virtually absent

Pros

Great people to work with, good salary, underdog mentality. Stretched in a lot of roles, but that means you have the opportunity to wear a lot of hats and try many new things.

Cons

Regular restructuring due to industry pressure. Weak brand, little marketing funding and visibility vs competitor
