Pros

Don't have to pay to use the toilets.

Cons

If things go well, management take credit, if things don't go well, it's your fault. Hire like mad when the sun is shining, fire like mad when the poor choices come home to roost. No control over the company finances, hence the runaway costs. No management vision, company profits just driven by market volatility. Senior management on the business side despise technology department, and take every opportunity to prove they are in charge by belittling people. No career development. Open contempt for staff. Withdrawal of WFH based on tired old tropes. If management actually believe the reasons, they're incompetent. If they're just back filling the CEOs ego, they're incompetent. Entire company panders to the CEOs latest tantrum. Probably wont be a company in a years time - can't retain staff, or hire them. Toxic environment, actively created by CEO and his stooges. Bad investment. Never ending bad choices by senior management on the business side, which consistently fail, and generate no return - nobody ever held to account, they just blame their staff and sack them. Management resorting to posting fake reviews on here, to try and inflate the score. HR rejecting flexible working requests out of hand, because flexible working doesn't gel with the CEOs Victorian workhouse ethics. HR are completely on the side of the petulant CEO, and don't care about staff, or look after their interests.
