Pros

Good pay to start with

Cons

Chaos at this company never stops. To add to overall stress caused by that, management is dishonest and behaves like they own their employees. Not listening to feedback. It’s my way or the highway. All processes and procedures will make your head spin before you can accomplish anything useful and achieve any progress, and then take a fall for it if anything is not on par with the newest requirements from 5 min ago. Very difficult to keep up with the latest nonsense, which as a rule, adds no value. And of course, known to many, layoffs never ever stop.
