      Not recommended for long-term employment

      Test automation engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      – Colleagues on the same level are generally supportive. – Opportunity to gain some basic experience.

      Cons

      – Management is unprofessional and often shows disrespectful behavior towards employees. – No transparency in career growth or promotion processes. – Salary increases, when they happen, are minimal and usually below the inflation rate. – Tenure and personal contribution are not valued — no matter how long you work, you won’t receive anything more significant. – Overall impression is that employees are not valued by leadership.

      Pros

      Cons

      - Leaders and managers prioritize appearing in charge over focusing on the product. - They use manipulative tactics to prove their authority. - Experienced and knowledgeable team members have left the team. - High stress levels due to leadership's behavior, not project demands.
