Pros
Great place for someone who is starting out their careers. The benefits are hard to beat.
Cons
When I returned from maternity leave, I was not provided a safe space to express my breast milk. I requested for a lock to be installed on my door to ensure that I will not have any intruders. That was quickly declined, and the response I got was because of budgeting reasons. I was made to feel discouraged like this is the way things are. I was told others before me have tried going to HR, but that did not help them. I knew what my rights were as a working mother, but I decided to just leave the company instead of fighting with people I will have to work with on a daily basis. Even if I won the battle of getting a secure place to pump, I would be in a losing position as I'm surrounded by people who have shown that they do not respect mine and my child's needs. Management style is more on the micromanaging side. Managers cared most about making themselves look good in front of their leaders, and not so much about the mental and physical wellbeing of their team members. At least, this is the case in the area I worked in.
