Pros

- peers and middle management are nice, knowledgeable, helpful people

Cons

- upper management is promoting a toxic work culture - micromanaging, very reactive work culture, no long-term vision, but constant chaos and firefighting giving little chance to evolve professionally - employees are being treated like interchangeable, lifeless resources - double standards: those hired more recently face little accountability, while everyone else struggles with unrealistic expectations - feedback is dismissed, they want loyal minions
