Pros
- Brand name on your resume
- Exposure to high-pressure, high-volume workflows
- Some colleagues are hardworking and sharp
Cons
- Culture is deeply hierarchical and fear-driven — mistakes are not tolerated, even minor ones, and employees often shift blame onto others to protect themselves
- Extreme micromanagement, with very little room for independent thought or growth
- Toxic team dynamics; some coworkers were hostile, uncollaborative, and competitive to a fault
- Feedback is often personal or harsh, rather than constructive
- Compensation is low for the workload and stress
- Very little psychological safety — hard to speak up or ask for support
