Pros

- Work life balance - flexible working hours - If you don't consider for career advancement, here maybe a good place for you to layoff.

Cons

- bad increments - very politic ... If HR like you, you can get a lot of promotion / increments ... on the other way, if HR don't like you, they will force you to leave the company with tons of "activity" - The KPI is never align with how business need and it set by HR, but, HR is never run with business ... - in 5 years time, change of 3 Operation Manage (which is consider as Senior Management). And, this impact so much on day to day business - You can only get promotion when you are good enough (be friend) with HR - HR will use all the social media to observe your activity ...

Pros

Great company and good employees

Cons

This is one of the worst places I have ever worked. They do not care about their employees here; to them, you are just another number. They get upset when you use your sick days, even though they are a legal right, and then retaliate against you by punishing you when you return to work. And be careful about filing a complaint with Human Resources because they are two-faced. Instead of helping you, it often ends up backfiring on you. That is why no one feels comfortable going to them. This company does not appreciate or value its employees unless you have connections or favoritism. Management, starting from the top, has no clear direction. Everything constantly changes, even when it is not the best option, simply because someone higher up decided it. The environment feels outdated and authoritarian, like something from another era. There is a lot of hypocrisy, resentment, and abuse of power.
