Pros

If you like fake nice people who talk behind you, this is the perfect place for you.

Cons

- It is not a merit based company. - Everybody is related, all relatives. -Non stop gossiping - Engagement surveys are a joke, you are coerced into giving high scores. - Engagement is about giving doughnuts to employees, treated like toddlers. - Continuous tongue lashing. Having a discussion is frowned upon. - No trust within the organization. - Same mistakes are done over and over, no effort to fix them. It is as if they want you to keep typing the wrong information everyday. -If you have a college degree you are in trouble, any kind of college degree is undesired. - They want you just to smile and nod, they do not want you to think, challenge, discuss, learn or change anything. -Leaders who think disappear all of a sudden without any explanations. - Continuous humiliation. - Don't ask questions or tell your opinion of how things can be done better or talk about any problems. -No accountability at senior leadership level. -Boring job, boring people, boring technology, super boring. -There is no passion in doing something great or special and to make a difference. If you do, you don't fit in. -Very very very very old fashioned - Extremely old fashioned.

Cons

-Office politics promote plenty of people who don't deserve it and the teams happiness is highly dependent upon who you end up reporting to -WAY too much false urgency created by bad leaders -Big company means slow moving in all the stuff you want to go fast. Often times too many cooks in the kitchen
