Pros

No pros- The company had a name once upon a time, but now it is nothing but a box of selflessness

Cons

Disturbing blame game culture affects mental health US and Canada team try to work together but are unable to do so since past 5 years. There is always a restructure happening No communication is developed keeping customer in mind- it is a one size fits all thing Less pay than industry They don't even give basic vision benefits The managers have little to zero experience in people skills Destructive feedback culture, they will make you feel at the worst everyday and they will make sure you unlearn everything. Management and HR are out of picture to take action on employee's feedback
