      Pros

      - most employees in mid level management in technical positions are competent - international environment

      Cons

      -"preference" to hire an external employee than retain current employees - it is nearly impossible to ger a raise or a promotion for internal employees; a lot of high performers end up leaving because their salaries are not fair and competitive - focus on cost saving at any cost, seemingly no regard for/appreciation of people - seemingly lack of long-term planning - not growth or employee succession plans - minimal to no training/development opportunities - actively keeping key information from employees (HR does not communicate transparently) - lacking resources for key positions - wringing current employees to the max without recognition (again, no salary/compensation adjustments) - complete lack of leadership and competence in some teams - helpfulness is not rewarded but punished (personal experience, being stabbed in the back when trying to help another team)
