Pros

You get your salary on time. Annual leave more then average (but you can’t really use it, as the manager will rarely approve).

Cons

No clear vision and job assignment. Manager will change your task or work anytime as they like. Manager are practising favouritism, only see the work done by those people that they like, if they don’t like you, no matter how hard working or how good you are, they won’t appreciate it. No flexibility. Micro management. Not allow to talk cross department.
