Pros

Overall the company is good at compensating the employee. Seems like there is always someone getting food for some type of reason. GWP as they call it. Being salary, there is no issue submitting for extra pay when you come in extra although it's capped at 300 per occurrence. This depends on job grade. Lower job grades salary is 150 per occurrence. The people in my immediate group are all pretty good it seems. Although this might be slanted because I am in management and don't see what the average worker sees.

Cons

Strict technology policy. You can't bring a personal laptop and your phone if you get their "Proprietary" software inhibits most functions on your phone. Your phone is your only real gateway to anything outside of the company. Everything is tracked heavily from where you badge in and out of, to the websites you look at if you are bored. Lastly, the biggest con in my opinion, is the company is massively "Woke". Guys can't say anything in any joking manner without looking over their shoulder like the policy police are out to get them fired. This is not an exaggeration. As a result, I never talk to anyone outside of people I absolutely have to for business reasons.

Pros

Not much except the fact that you gain the experience of working in a big company.

Cons

- Absolutely no work life balance. Be prepared to work late nights everyday and during weekends. - Many many many KPIs. - Lack of improvement in work culture and processes. HR team had been collecting feedback for years with no meaningful improvement in the matters/concerns voiced out by employees. - Poor career progression and employee welfare. - Advice to ask around and do more research before joining the company.

Pros

Some nice people but really doesn’t matter because most are brainwashed into a horrible culture. Bullying, no work life balance and authoritarian approach

Cons

The structure, culture, lack of care of mental health
