Pros

Nice physical work environments Access to some company audio products at employee prices Good flexibility of working at office or home

Cons

Extreme, and toxic focus on Diversity, Equity & Inclusion ideology to the detriment of merit incentives Many managerial-driven disincentives that decrease employee engagement, e.g. apathy, poor communication, fuzzy team goals, excessive favoritism (especially by German managers toward USA STAFF) Too easy for many employees to “quiet quit” and fall off managerial oversight
