No recognition or transparency

Pros

Employee benefits are okay, salary is impossible to improve though.

Cons

Really difficult to progress, and if you do, only small steps. No transparency among leadership or management - it is all very political. Recognition from direct line manager is always there, but they are unable to progress you any further. When company was smaller, there was a lot more support and sufficient training. You will be expected to read an SOP and hit the ground running.
