Pros
-Big international company with job opportunities -Benefits and pay are competitive, IF you ask -Peers are mostly like-minded
Cons
-Participation in non-required activities and meetings like weekly touchpoints and monthly company community are weighed heavier than actual job performance in terms of who to promote. These are also events that people are expected to attend, regardless of other job responsibilities. -Promotions are 100% the result of favoritism, resulting in ill-prepared and unqualified people being placed in leadership positions. This leads to failure. -Many people here work their tails off, but aren't recognized unless their in inner-circles of team leads and project management. -Project management seems lost sometimes. Constantly chasing new ideas and discarding ones that work. -Projects have their own cliques that defend their own people. Ex: if one person is under-performing the group will defend them for months, making excuses to leadership -Effective strategies include "shuffling the deck chairs on the Titanic"
