Pros
I would like to present the other side of the story, after reading multiple bad feedback on this company that I have worked with for over a decade.The company was plagued with many problems in recent years. The Pros is that there is actually still a dedicated group of people who have the right mindset and determination to change course and weed out the rotten portion of the workforce. This process of changing mindset and culture is tough. For the people who want to continue slacking and do the bare minimum and still get paid, life is getting tough. I have seen many slackers leaving the company as the Company is no longer good for sleeping during nightshift, staying in the office the whole night when you should be in the fab doing your job. What do you think about such people who collect salary and then sleep on the job? What do you think is their mindset to begin with? These are the people who are rotten and have bad attitude. And what do these people do when they leave the company due to the company tightening the grip on them? They leave with anger, as if it was the company's fault. And they then come to this platform to vent their frustrations.
Cons
Let's be realistic. Cost cutting, austerity measures during tough times, trying to squeeze out more productivity are things practiced by all companies. If you were to run your own company, would you not try to maximize profits? Would you not tighten your belt when times are tough? These are the same things that any reasonable management would do. I would probably say that we are just much more aggressive and determined to make things work. In a way, that also created pressure and stress or the so called lack of work life balance that you have seen in multiple feedbacks. There is some truth in that which cannot be denied, but a large part of it has been blown out of proportions as well. Some remarks were clearly written in jest, such as the one with the Game of Thrones theme.
