Pros

The training provided and regimented system does provide you with structure when you begin working at STHREE (keyword: begin). Your team leads are generally very supportive and willing to teach you the ropes. However with the unrealistic pressure they get from Senior Management, there is the trickle down effect. You have clear targets to hit to get promoted. It is fairly transparent. However, please refer to the Cons section to see how you get fast track your way to the top. You get to go for drinks almost every day after work. You get to have a rushed game of table tennis during lunch because you need to be seated at your desk at 2pm and not a minute later for fear of snide remarks from the boss (see more of his reputation in the Cons section).

Cons

If you like to be treated like children and be micro-managed more than your parents ever did, you'll love it here. If you think you can sleep with the boss to get promoted despite not hitting your targets and get away with it, you're not wrong at all.
